Oh yeah, that's true.  But some overlay/phone packages are used on the
desktop and thus go into main.  And their dependencies have to be in
main, and so on.  So sometimes we need it, sometimes we don't.  I had
assumed mediascanner was being used by something else in main (or you
wanted to get the mediascanner scope into the desktop).  If not, no need
for a MIR.  Great.  :)

Title:
  [MIR] mediascanner

Status in mediascanner package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Availability:
  In universe: amd64, i386, armhf, powerpc

  Rationale:
  The mediascanner package provides required functionality for media discovery 
and search, used by the unity-scope-mediascanner Unity scope - which is 
intended to be provided by default on Ubuntu. The same package is said to be 
used by mediaplayer-app touch-app in the nearest future.

  Dependencies:
  Not all dependencies are in main. Some of them have respective MIR bugs 
filled, some need action from upstream. The following list states the current 
status:
  - grillo - MIR filled in LP: #1116098
  - lucene++ - MIR filled in LP: #1217260
  - libboost-locale-dev - source boost-defaults is already in main, needs 
ubuntu-archive bug for promoting

  Maintenance:
  It is an Ubuntu upstream project, so we are making sure that it's properly 
maintained and developed for the required period of time.

  Quality assurance:
  The package is extensively tested by unit tests. Integration tests are not 
present in this source - the unity-scope-mediascanner will provide basic 
autopilot integration testing.
