Thanks to sdog's blog , i've found and tested Zattoo . They provide binaries (yep, binaries only ...) for Mac OS X, also for an OS from Redmond, and ... for Linux ! You have the choice between a .deb package, a RPM package , and a .tar.gz file containing the binaries. Of course i tested the rpm, that was packaged very badly .. `rpm -qi zattoo` gave me quickly the answer why : '(Converted from a deb package by alien version 8.64.)' :o)
I'm wondering if i need/can (due to their proprietary license) re-package the static binaries with the correct 'Requires:' field and a '%post' section doing all the symlinks (yep, their binaries are build against/for .so.0d :-( ....) and a proper ldconfig ... and put a .nosrc in the package name ....
Anyway, the future will tell if the Zattoo service will remain free or not ...
