Package: audacious
Version: 1.4.6-2
Severity: normal

Hi,

Audacious fails to locate files referred in XSPF playlists when the
XML:base attribute is missing from said playlists and relative paths are
used.

Example, there are 2 files, "song1.mp3" and "song2.mp3", in a directory.
In this same directory there is an XSPF playlist file whose contents is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/";>
  <trackList>
    <track>
      <location>song1.mp3</location>
    </track>
    <track>
      <location>song2.mp3</location>
    </track>
  </trackList>
</playlist>

If opened with audacious, this list will fail to play because audacious
doesn't seem to be able to find out where these files are located.

In my opinion, audacious should look in the same location where the
playlist is in order to find the files when no absolute paths are given.
This is the behaviour that dictates the XSPF spectification [1], if I
understand correctly, and this is what audacious already does with M3U
playlist (it's common sense, anyway).
