I don't think g4music is in the archive. Would you be willing to do the
packaing? We could consider to do the switch then. Feel free to link the
wnpp issue here in case you pick that up.

I'm aware amberol is there but lollypop and g4music/gapless are nicer
when it comes to managing music collections so a switch wouldn't buy us
much there.
