I've just pushed the trivial changelog changes for audacious and
audacious-plugins.  I've tested that they work, and uploaded the
packages to mentors as proof.

I made my changes, git add, git commit, git tag.  I wasn't sure which
convention to use for backports, so I based my tag on the debian
version.  It's at the top of the list for git tag -l.  I also wasn't
sure if I should if I should reset the tag back to the debian/3.7.2-1
and debian/3.7.2-2.  Please indicate how I can do a better job next
time.

Thank you,
Nicholas
