With many thanks to Auralvance, we’ve got Fedora RPMs for FC9 up at our Contributed Builds page!
We’re working to get them into Fedora, so if you’re interested in following along, go add yourself to bug 453422 (on Fedora’s Bugzilla)

SubscribeIt would be really useful if there was a ubuntu or debian repository for Songbird. It’s not uncommon to have third party repositories for specific software projects such as Miro or Avant Window Navigator or Compiz-Fusion (or Songbird.) Ubuntu users love bleeding edge technology, including stuff much less stable than Songbird, and hoenstly, Ubuntu is what’s popular in Linux these days.
Anyhow, not entirely sure how to set up a repository myself, but I just thought I’d throw that out there…you’d certainly get a lot of new users from it.
Keep up the excellent work!
Are you thinking about .debs for ubuntu? or a repository?
OpenSolaris builds should be bump to 0.6.1
Awesomenesss! Nice to have an easy install option now
I just updated the links to 0.6.1-2 for some debugging fixes, but you shouldn’t notice much. Glad everyone likes them! I’ll be working hard to try and get Songbird officially accepted into fedora-extras, but it might take a bit.
In response to the Ubuntu fans, sorry, I don’t have the setup to build .debs right now… and my Debian is a bit rusty. .deb’s are another world of their own. You can try using alien, but I have no idea whether that will actually work or not::

Works good too
@vivek: Thank you very much! :-))
Er, that’s F9, dude. The “C” went away a couple releases ago.
The i386 RPM works fine on FC9. I cannot wait to be able to use ‘yum update songbird’ (right after doing ‘pkg install songbird’ on OpenSolaris).
