[packman] XBMC 11.0

[Sagi Ben-Akiva]

Hi all,

sorry for not answering to your emails, but 2 days ago I, finally, decided
to upgrade my PC to openSUSE 12.1.
It took more than 24 hours to download ~2100 packages and now I can't login
to my system (KDE crashes after login)
but this is a different story.

OK, so we will stay with xbmc as the package name.

Regarding libnfs, yes I think we should add it to packman repository,
I'm building it in my home project as well and it is ready to be submitted
to pm repository.
I decided to build it because I noticed that xbmc needs this package in
order to support NFS.
I think this package should be part of Essentials repo and not Multimedia,
what do you think ?

Thanks,
   Sagi.
