It seems that unlike the last few packages we looked at, Banshee
respects ./configure overrides properly - less invasive patch is
attached. Slomo, can you comment & commit a new package to Experimental
please?

The number in those package names refers to the version (think of it as
the soname) of the library - in most cases, that's the same thing as the
CLI version, but in this case, all three libraries
(libndesk-dbus1.0-cil, libndesk-dbus-glib1.0-cil,
libmono-zeroconf1.0-cil) are actually CLI 2.0 libraries which call
themselves version 1.0 (or ABI-compatible with it, at least, which is
just as important):

jms at osc-franzibald:/tmp/banshee-1.4.1$ monodis
--assemblyref /usr/lib/cli/mono-zeroconf-1.0/Mono.Zeroconf.dll | grep
-B1 System
2: Version=2.0.0.0
	Name=System


Short version: nothing to worry about in this instance :)
