songbird-0.2.ebuild (ebuild) (Won't run yet)

Here's a preliminary ebuild for songbird. It does not work because when the tarball is extracted the permissions are reset to defaults. I've tried and tried to fix this but failed. Hopefully someone with more knowledge on the subject can fix the problem.

Comment 7 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-07 12:57:42 UTC
the ebuild has been reworked and will be added to Sunrise Overlay soon, I will announce here.

I can get the source of a snapshot compiled but it is far to big (more than 300 MB) to just create an ebuild.  The source snapshot brings all dependendencies and so the build system needs to be modified.  I have little experience and would like to ask people to support me with that.  Contact me by email please.

songbird-bin-0.2_rc2.ebuild

I made same changes in the ebuild of Christian 'Opfer' Faulhammer:

- Install software in /opt/songbird
- No need of a launcher script, I create a symlink on /opt/bin
- Use the correct pixmap icon
- Changed the name of the ebuild to songbird-bin-0.2_rc2.ebuild

Category suggested: media-sound.
Comment 9 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-08 10:00:56 UTC
I did not provide the first ebuild.  Mine is found here:

http://www.gentoo-sunrise.org/sunrise/browser/sunrise/media-sound/mozilla-songbird-bin

I incorporated some of your changes.  The more, it has proper dependencies and some changed functions used.
Comment 10 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-10 10:25:58 UTC
This is now in the sunrise overlay. You can find it at:
http://gentoo-sunrise.org/svn/reviewed/media-sound/mozilla-songbird-bin

I tried to work out a source ebuild but the songbird build system is in no way compatible to normal behaviour/expectations.  I would have to invest a lot of energy to patch and I see no sense in that.  Upstream will be asked to adjust the system, but I won't do their work.

None of the links seem to work.
Comment 15 Jose daLuz 2007-09-16 23:08:12 UTC
While 0.2.1 is in the Sunrise overlay, 0.2.5 is currently available. If I have time, I'll try renaming the ebuild to see if it works with 0.2.5.

I'm not worried about the warnings of 32-bit plugins from my firefox-bin setup. The last two items are accompanied by nothing but a frozen copy of /opt/songbird/xulrunner/xulrunner-bin displaying nothing. However, that might be related to the fact that I'm running gtk+ 2.12.0/glib 2.14.0 from the gnome-experimental overlay. Perhaps someone with a less-cutting-edge Gnome desktop would like to give this a try?

Just to mention that Songbird 0.7 public beta has just been released.

Now it is in public beta, will it be added as unstable to portage proper?
Also will there be both media-sound/songbird{,bin}?

Cool Christian,

your 0.7 ebuild works for me under AMD64 very fine.

Thanks!

The ebuild and software work great on amd64.

I vote for pushing songbird into portage!
Comment 30 Ben de Groot (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-10-18 23:24:49 UTC
We need to make it build from source, on top of our xulrunner ebuild. When that works, I am willing to commit it to portage. 

In the meantime somebody may want to update the ebuild for songbird-bin in Sunrise overlay.

 * Songbird is still under development!
 * This ebuild is not supported by Gentoo, so
 * please do not send any bugs at Gentoo's bugzilla.

Who put this ewarn in the ebuild? It should probably be "Do not post upstream bugs", because honestly, how are we supposed to create a good ebuild that has a chance to be committed into portage if user help is not appreciated?

Anyway, the ebuild works fine for me.
Comment 33 R Bar-On 2008-11-12 13:30:20 UTC
I agree, it should be built from source.  Unfortunately, the build instructions at http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Developer/Articles/Getting_Started/Core_Player_Development require binary dependencies to be checked out.  That's not in the Gentoo spirit...

That's not a problem. We have ebuilds for all those dependencies, so we can supply those ourselves. Maybe I should contact someone from the mozilla herd to help out, as they know about building things with xulrunner.

The problem is that those dependencies are *heavily* patched and songbird devs have had little patience for upstreaming their patches. And they need vlc-0.8*.

The songbird-bin ebuild made available here also has our ebuilds as dependencies (so not patched by songbird devs) and seems to work just fine. And I don't see a vlc dep anywhere either.

libxul.so is installed by this ebuild.

That was my mistake. They have patches for vlc and I assumed... Anyway, for linux they rely exclusively on gstreamer.

songbird-bin-1.0.0_rc2-symlink.patch

Starting with 1.0.0_rc1 (or rather some unknown nightly) a new shell script songbird/songbird-bin is added.

Making this execulable (see ebuild above) is not enought. Symlinking to songbird/sonbird doesn't work anymore:

$ songbird-bin 
songbird-bin: Cannot execute .

There is a patch at http://bugzilla.songbirdnest.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13265. Unfortunately that isn't enought eighter. Since we have /opt/bin/songbird-BIN -> /opt/songbird/songbird. I modified that patch (crudely) to work around that.

If someone finds a source tarball, please let me know so I can build an ebuild for it ...

If there isn't a source tarball, would it be ok to create one from SVN and host it?
Comment 43 R Bar-On 2008-11-15 12:34:19 UTC
does installing songbird seriously require libstdc++?  Why are there binaries linked against pre gcc 3.4?  Damn, this kind of stuff is why I run Gentoo!  A source ebuild would be so much better...

1.0.0 ebuild works great for me, with the unnecessary glibc dependency removed.

I think, source can be found on http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Developer/Articles/Builds/Contributed_Builds
The direct link to source is http://download.songbirdnest.com/source/Songbird1.0.0-860.tar.bz2

I'm just messing with this strange way of deploying the sources and depending on libraries.

The Songbird developers really deploy all the dependencies nedded as source, including gcc and everything else needed to build ...
Comment 55 Dominik George 2008-12-08 19:56:56 UTC
They have almost all of the dependencies patched, so we cannot use existing ebuilds as dependencies.

This is BAD!

I won't give up ;)
Comment 56 Trevor Bowen 2008-12-09 17:35:38 UTC
I was able to successfully install the 1.0.0 ebuild -- Thanks, Jonas! However, I am encountering two errors during run-time:

1) If I execute songbird-bin as root, the app opens fine, and I able to locate songs and add them to my library.  However, whenever I try to play an M4A song, I get the following pop-up error:

Songbird has encountered the following media core error:
GStreamer encountered a general stream error.

BTW, this does not happen, if I try to play an MP3.  I read elsewhere this may be related to PuleAudio dependencies...

2) If I execute songbird-bin as a normal user, it dies immediately with this error:

$ songbird-bin 
run_moz: /opt/songbird/songbird-bin
xx /opt/songbird/songbird-bin
/opt/bin/songbird-bin: line 134: 31371 Segmentation fault      "$prog" ${1+"$@"}

$ echo $?
139

Any suggestions?  Are there additional dependencies not being expressed by the current 1.0.0 ebuild (pulseaudio, etc.)?  My apologies if I should have reported this somewhere else. ... Thanks!
Comment 57 Dominik George 2008-12-09 21:16:28 UTC
Re: #56

The ebuild clearly states (after installing) that upstream bugs are not handled by the Gentoo project.

And the Songbird website clearly states that Songbird can not playback m4a files at the moment.

-nik
Comment 58 Trevor Bowen 2008-12-09 21:38:14 UTC
#57 - My apologies.  It is hard for me to know what is an "upstream" bug versus an "ebuild" bug.

I was able to solve my two problems.  Here are the solutions:

1) M4A files require this GStreamer plugin:

emerge media-plugins/gst-plugins-faad

I also went through the pulseaudio and realtime setups.  I don't know if that helped, but once I included the faad plugin, everything started working.

2) My regular user could not run Songbird.  Why?  I had previously tried to install songbird from songbirdnest, but experienced several lib (32-bit versus 64-bit) errors, so I uninstalled it.  Unfortunately, the leftover preferences directory (~/.songbird2) was not compatible, and it was causing the seg-fault.  Once I deleted it, my user could run songbird-bin, same as root.

So, I am playing M4A files flawlessly now through PulseAudio, ALSA, and Songbird-1.0 over an EchoAudio Mia card.  woot!  Thanks for the ebuilds and help!

Should we update the ebuild to remove the libstdc++-3.3 dep and fix the "fad -> faad" typo in the USE flags?  This probably would have saved me all this headache, if that typo had not been present, and if the flag had been active by default.  I'll be happy to upload a new version...  They are minor changes.

I would suggest to replace the faad use flag by the aac use flag. 
This would be conformant to the exaile and banshee ebuilds, as example.

Maybe also faac use flag may be replaced by the ipod use flag as in the banshee ebuild.

Yeah, that's pretty bad. The best thing to do, in my opinion, is to urge the upstream Songbird developers to submit their patches to the upstream dependencies, especially Xulrunner (i.e. Mozilla). Either that or they should use vanilla xulrunner. We do not want to patch our (system) xulrunner with patches particular to Songbird. And we also do not want to support a Songbird build with its own version of xulrunner, and all of the security hassles that brings about.

All in all, the way things are now with Songbird, it doesn't look like this will go into portage any time soon. At least the -bin ebuild is now available in Sunrise, for those users who really want it.

Which version of the x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers are you running?  I received the same segfault when running 180.16; looking at the backtrace you can see the NVIDIA libraries are the problem.  Reverting to 177.82 fixed it for me.

Comment 66 Alex Alexander (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-12-18 15:18:36 UTC
Yeah, Im running 180.16.

But Im not reverting for Songbird, 180.16 is an excellent release, not worth losing for Songbird.

Thanks anyway :)

any progress on portage inclusion?

Until upstream does the sensible thing and starts using system libraries, inclusion isn't really desirable. I understand there is an ebuild in sunrise which is easy to get to with layman.
The minute upstream rectifies the problems we've been discussing in this bug, I (or another dev) will get an ebuild into the portage tree.

No. See comments #62 and #64, as well as

http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/@api/deki/files/599/=songbird-bin-1.1.1.1018.ebuild

my ebuild for it.
Comment 73 Thomas Sachau gentoo-dev 2009-03-13 16:46:08 UTC
Also it is already in keywords and whiteboard, seems like at least some people dont know about it or dont notice it:

sunbird-bin is in sunrise-overlay (details at [1] and [2]), you can use it in a simple way with it and you can also get access to it to get any updates into the overlay (see the HowtoCommit link on [2] for details).

The 1.1.1 ebuild doesn't work for me, neither did my own one. The old symlink error again, but I cannot seem to get the patch applied. Apart from that, the patch we supposed for 1.0.0 appears to be included in upstream ...

my work around was simply to run /opt/songbird/songbird whenever i want to use it.

Songbird version 1.1.1 ebuild

New version of songbird was released. Start script does not work if link is not called 'songbird', thats why patch file is included in next attachment.

Comment 78 Dominik George 2009-03-17 11:43:40 UTC
There is an upstream bug that prevents Songbird 1.1.1 from doing add-on updates, rendering this version virtually useless (apart from pure playback) on Linux.

i've had no issues installing addons. there are a few that are not compatible because they haven't been updated for 1.1.1, but other than that i've had no issues

latest (180.41) nvidia-drivers.
Comment 82 Christian Strahl 2009-04-01 21:34:16 UTC
(In reply to comment #80, #81)

Upstream bugtracker shows workaround (use mesa libGL instead of nvidia):

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/opengl/xorg-x11/lib/libGL.so.1.2;
songbird-bin


(http://bugzilla.songbirdnest.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15306)

Comment 83 kaaZoo 2009-04-18 10:42:02 UTC
Created attachment 188783 [details]
Songbird version 1.1.2 ebuild
Comment 84 Peter Alfredsen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-04-19 18:40:57 UTC
*** Bug 266796 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Comment 85 renato gallo 2009-04-20 08:39:34 UTC
anyone else there has problems visualizing the collection titles ?
Comment 86 Alexander Huemer 2009-04-23 17:58:34 UTC
the ebuild from kaaZoo 2009-04-18 has a dependency on >=virtual/xft-7.0, which does not exist on my system. in which overlay can it be found?
Comment 87 Gabor Garami 2009-05-04 14:15:35 UTC
Please remove virtual/xft dependency from 1.1.2 ebuild, because this package isn't exist anymore.
Comment 88 Anthony Mattheakakis 2009-05-06 09:07:56 UTC
Had the exact same issue. Fixed by adding export LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib64/mozilla-firefox/libjemalloc.so" in the wrapper script (.../songbird)
See this bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/262205

Comment 89 renato gallo 2009-05-06 10:45:21 UTC
shouldn't be right to add a patch for the wrapper script into the ebuild ?

You might want to keep the package name intact when posting a new ebuild ;)
Comment 93 Eric Johnson 2009-05-20 06:00:09 UTC
Can songbird run in a non-gnome environment? I don't see a gnome dependency.  

SBAppInitialize:SBRegisterSongbirdProtocol()
TypeError: Components.classes['@mozilla.org/gnome-gconf-service;1'] is undefined



The rest of the exceptions seem to be simple linking issues.

Yes, it runs outside GNOME, but needs gconf.

Please add the required dependencies!
Comment 95 Dominik George 2009-05-20 12:10:10 UTC
Although this might be a bug in a gstreamer ebuild as the library is required by a gst plugin rather than Songbird directly.
Comment 96 ~S 2009-05-20 14:34:54 UTC
something interesting happened with me
i am -gnome -kde -qt user, so i prefer fluxbox and X only packages
anyways, i was searching for alternative to amarok and bumped into exaile
i emerged it but i didn't like it
at the same time i came across songbird, i was curious if the binary would work on my ~amd64 machine
i downloaded the tarball from www.getsongbird.com, extracted it in my home dir
and woila! it worked like a charm!
i used it for a day or two, and then unmerged exaile
oopsi! err!!
the songbird won't chirp anymore :(

so i tried installing all the dependencies exaile pulled in
(namely the gstreamer-plugins-meta package)
but it still refuses to play any mp3 :(

so if you guys can examine the dependancies of exaile and figure out what's needed by songbird, maybe you can fix the ebuild issue
(i have no idea how to write ebuild, i am n00b in that sense :P )

I am very glad to find the sunrise overlay
hope you guys keep up the good work and keep bumping the sunrise overlay version of songbird

cheers!(or shall i say chirp!!)

Comment 97 ~S 2009-05-20 16:35:17 UTC
Oops!
I forgot to mention the main point
Songbird_1.1.2-1042_linux-x86_64.tar.gz when extracted to home dir and running the songbird wrapper script works fine for me
(to resolve the dependancy issue, i emerged songbird from sunrise overlay, but instead of using songbird-bin, i use the wrapper script songbird from the extracted tarball
so far the app runs fine with the usual starting warning of

Songbird 1.2.0 ebuild, added pulseaudio USE

Version 1.2.0 was released June 18th '09.

Spent a few minutes to put the USE deps/flags in alphabetical order, edit the symlink patch (I don't think the addition of 'else' is necessary as the script now comes with 'fi' on line 310), added pulseaudio as a USE flag, and added einfo about hotkeys.

Some preliminary testing yields a working Songbird install without any special workarounds. Woot.

~amd64:

anybody is getting the same crappy message ?

songbird-bin 
/opt/songbird/songbird-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/gst-0.10/gst/_gst.so: undefined symbol: gst_xml_get_type
Could not initialize GStreamer: Error re-scanning registry , child terminated by signal

package providing _gst.so is dev-python/gst-python

any ideas what to do ?

thanks
Comment 101 Matt 2009-06-24 13:27:43 UTC
got it:

the solution is to mask =dev-python/gst-python-0.10.15* (or even above)

and re-emerge and/or downgrade to dev-python/gst-python-0.10.13

then songbird-bin starts up fine

seems like gst-python-0.10.15 includes a bug or doesn't support gst_xml_get_type
which 0.10.13 does - strange :S

enjoy ! :)
Comment 102 Alexander Huemer 2009-07-15 09:41:15 UTC
is there a resolution for the gst-python problem yet?
Comment 103 Ryan 2009-07-15 21:21:45 UTC
even easier fix then downgrading, Songbird is packing it's own gstreamer libs, go into /opt/songbird/lib, and rm -rf libgst* 

This worked for me, no more gst xml erros.
Comment 104 Alex Beloi 2009-10-07 07:04:55 UTC
(songbird-bin:12893): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin 'i_changed_this/gst-plugins/libgstpulse.so': /usr/lib/libsndfile.so.1: undefined symbol: vorbis_version_string
./songbird: line 134: 12893 Segmentation fault      "$prog" ${1+"$@"}


I kept getting that segfault when trying to play any (mp3) track in my library. I use pulseaudio, may be relevant. I tried downgrading everything from gstreamer and gst-python to every gst-plugins-* package I had, this was based on other warnings I would get at startup such as

(songbird-bin:1571): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin '/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstdeinterlace.so': /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstdeinterlace.so: undefined symbol: gst_video_format_parse_caps_interlaced

The segfault error occurred with songbird versions 1.1.2, 1.2.0, and 1.4.0 nightly or svn builds. I suspected some changes in a gstreamer or gst-python/plugins upgrade might be the root of the problem.

What ended up working was downgrading to libsndfile-1.0.18 from libsndfile-1.0.20.

I would post more info (technically, I think this should go in songbird's buzilla), but at this point I don't feel like recompiling some libraries (and registering at songbird's bugzilla) just to post more error codes.

if anybody would like to try to recreate this bug and/or try to file it at songbird's bugzilla, here are some instructions

recreate:
songbird versions 1.1.2, 1.2.0(sunrise overlay), or 1.4.0 nightly
>libsndfile-1.0.18
<maybe>
pulseaudio-0.9.19-r50
alsa set to use pulse by default
</maybe>
play any track after startup

I can confirm this, worked for me, prior to removing the bundled libs, Songbird would die a horrible death at startup.

However, I'm using the ebuild from sunrise overlay, not sure what differences there are.  I also DO NOT USE pulseaudio.

Comment 107 Michael Weber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-10-23 13:11:50 UTC
Either emerggin pulseaudio or removing /opt/songbird/gst-plugins/libgstpulse.so resolves this situation. 

Btw. the summary may contain the current ebuild name media-sound/songbird-bin, this would increase the visibility of this report.
Comment 108 Alex Efros 2009-11-12 19:31:07 UTC
Several issues with media-sound/songbird-bin-1.2.0.1146:

- to make it possible to send crash reports ebuild should do:
  chmod +x /opt/songbird/xulrunner/crashreporter

- to run sondbird on hardened system:
  chpax -m /opt/songbird/songbird-bin

Without these it hangs on start without printing any error messages, which make it hard to debug this issue.

That's strange. I'had no such problem when testing this. Which version did you upgrade from?
Comment 119 Trevor Bowen 2009-12-23 16:42:36 UTC
I had used this ebuild:  songbird-bin-1.2.0.ebuild.

The gui complained on start-up, reporting that the failed update behavior was unexpected and I should report a bug.  Unfortunately, I could not reproduce the error.  So, I moved my .songbird2 conf dir out of the way, and I restarted 2 or 3 times until everything worked.  I was missing all my library info; however, I was able to import from iTunes directly (with minimal song path hacking), which I could not do previously with older versions of songbird, so I ended up better than I started!  :) ... Thanks!

"Update (12/23/09): The Gonzo feather really, really did not want to go away; we fixed yet another Gonzo-related bug (number 19365, if you really want to know) and released Songbird 1.4.3.  Automatic updates will come out early next week."

songbird-bin-1.4.3.1438.ebuild is in the sunrise overlay now.

If you want to try the 1.8.0a_r1638 or the latest svn, try 
http://svn.xmw.de/websvn/gentoo-overlay/media-sound/songbird/

Works fine for me, but on line 75 I think it should be "use amd64 && subversion_fetch ..." instead of "use amf64 && subversion ..." ;-)
Comment 125 Matt 2010-05-04 11:56:31 UTC
thanks !

but besides that it should also be:

                use amd64 && subversion_fetch http://publicsvn.songbirdnest.com/vendor-binaries/trunk/linux-x86_64
                use x86 && subversion_fetch http://publicsvn.songbirdnest.com/vendor-binaries/trunk/linux-i686


instead of 

                use amd64 && subversion_fetch http://publicsvn.songbirdnest.com/vendor-binaries/trunk/linux-i686
                use x86 && subversion_fetch http://publicsvn.songbirdnest.com/vendor-binaries/trunk/linux-x86_64

(I don't think that the i686 source / binaries would work fine on amd64 and vice versa)

AFAICS upstream revised their decision, thus reopening.

nightly build, songbird-bin 1.8.0b3-1747 ebuild

Using this ebuild as a template:

songbird-bin-1.4.3.1438.ebuild

I changed the version number to:  1.8.0b3-1747

And, I changed:  net-misc/neon to net-libs/neon

It's a nightly-build binary installation, but it works fine for me on amd64.  Songbird was able to update all of my plug-ins, which were fairly standard.

YMMV

Ebuild for songbird-bin-1.8.0.1800 (the 1.8.0 release)

I'm not sure if updates to the ebuild should continue to come through here, but I've upgraded the ebuild here for the 1.8.0 release of songbird and it's working fine (amd64). Along the way I removed a load more binary libraries shipped with the build and replaced them with dependencies on the equivalent packages in Gentoo (dev-libs/nss dev-libs/nspr more gstreamer).

I didn't try and mess with sqlite3 (also shipped as a binary dep) as I don't know what version songbird (or rather their patched copy of xulrunner) is linked against ...

I've also got rid of the hard-coded name and version at the top so upgrades for future releases should be as simple as changing the file name (in theory).

It is working great on an x86 arch, I've been trying to install songbird 1.8 release for weeks, manually or by modifying older ebuilds, and it was never working, but your ebuild is working just fine! Thanks!

i'm here to just thank you all for the work done on this ebuild. works flawlessly on my amd64. 
Comment 133 Trevor Bowen 2011-03-16 16:51:10 UTC
Modified an earlier ebuild, very similar to 1.8.0b3, to add support for the new 1.9.3.1959 build.  (1.10.0 is in alpha currently and only available as a "nightly build".)  Unfortunately, songbird has dropped support 64-bit (amd64), and now they only provide a 32-bit (i686/x86) build.

This new build points to the new version, but it also forces the 32-bit version.  There's no more x86/amd64 arch switch on the SRC-URI.

My amd64 box does not have 32-bit gst-streamer plugins, so I have backed out the few lines that removed all the bundled libraries, since amd64 users now need those.  Otherwise, you get conflicting ELF loading errors.  (32-bit songbird tries to user your 64-bit system libraries.)

This ebuild should be updated so that only amd64 users get the bundled libs.  x86 arch users should continue to remove the bundled libs, since they will conflict with their system libs.  How can I switch this based on the arch?

AMD64 users should be able to use this AS-IS, but x86 users may want to uncomment lines 74-77

ebuild for the newest build I could find (Songbird_1.11.0a-2190_linux-i686.tar.gz)

* Based on ebuild 1.9.3 for amd64 users
* Changed download address to http://developer.songbirdnest.com/builds/trunk, seems like the old address doesn't work any more
* Since these seem to be automated builds, there is NO GUARENTEE they will work! A short test of this build on my x86 system has yielded no problems, but it might on yours! HANDLE WITH CARE!
* I'm not very good ad writing ebuilds, so there might be errors in this one!

Ebuild for songbird-bin-1.10.2.2199 (the 1.10.2 release)

Ebuild for the stable 1.10.2 release, based on the nightly ebuild 1.11.0a-2190 (attachment 297917 [details]).
Unfortunately downloading the tarball seems to fail with wget, although it works with a browser. I don't know if there is a solution for automatic download, or if we need to add fetch restriction and ask the user to manually download it.

The source code for songbird is available at http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Developer/Articles/Getting_Started/Core_Player_Development/Checkout_the_Code#Get_the_Trunk It may be better to look at building from source. I'll see about starting a source-based ebuild for songbird.

Did you have any luck with that?
Comment 140 Patrick McMunn 2012-04-06 01:32:38 UTC
I haven't spent a great deal of time on it, but what time I have spent has not been very fruitful - mainly because I'm not quite sure how to handle the dependencies. Some of them seem to be customized versions of older libraries such as xulrunner 1.9.2. The real stumbling block, however, was a dependency on hal. Hal is no longer in tree, and even when I did locate an ebuild for it, I couldn't even install it. In addition, as pointed out by this article http://changelog.complete.org/archives/1081-songbird-how-to-make-great-software-unpopular Songbird ships with its own copies of all the libraries it uses and does not use system libraries. It doesn't look like a simple thing to sort all these issues out.

It seems that this package is no longer in Sunrise.
