Bug#474576: rhythmbox: last.fm plugin stops submitting tracks when connection lost

Hi,

According to upstream:
        
        If the last.fm handshake fails, it retries every half hour.  Tracks played
        before the handshake completes will be queued, and then will be submitted once
        the handshake completes.

The handshake procedure had some bugs in 0.11.5, can you try 0.11.6 and
see if it behaves any better?
