Bug#600698: rhythmbox: cannot play internet mms streams

[Francesco Potortì]

Package: rhythmbox
Version: 0.12.8-2
Severity: normal

As reported in Launchpad report
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/rhythmbox/+bug/370860>,
rhythmbox cannot play internet mms streams.  Specifically, it hangs on
me when I play the internet radio at
<http://streaming.intoscana.it/wmtencoder/rtc.wma>.

Launchpad reports that a fix has been rleased upstream on June 22.
Could this patch be incorporated in a new rhythmbox Debian release?
