Did you want us to start picking it apart i.e what works, what doesn't, bugs etc?

You might wait a build or two for that. Right now, we're most interested in what it takes to get it to run and what it runs on. Thanks.

Bugs:
* Maximize, minimize and close buttons don't work.
* Launching as root causes a segmentation fault.
* Attempting to play anything gives a playback could not be started on device error, and then it segfaults. (Probably doesn't like virtual devices..)
* MC is freezing when attempting to enter the root audio view. The terminal output suggests was attempting to analyze the filesystem, but there's no I/O activity or CPU usage to suggest its still trying to do something.

This is a good page about using/disable pulseaudio on a user by user basis
https://wiki.debian.org/en/PulseAudio#Dynamically_enable.2Fdisable
I had to disable mine so I could run alsacap.
The result was this:
alsacap

It's not really designed for ubuntu but should work if you get all the dependencies in place.
You must have the 32 bit version of libcurl installed.
You can force the install or pull the deb apart and put the pieces into their correct place.
After you get it installed, you can see if any libs are missing by doing
ldd -d /usr/lib/jriver/Media*/*.so
and look for anything missing.
For the plugins, it's
ldd -d /usr/lib/jriver/Media*/Plugins/*.so
tlcmd:
It appeared to install on Linux Mint Debian Edition, but it hasn't shown up anywhere in my programs list and not in the Sound and Video section. Comments, please.
