Banshee is a popular audio player for GNOME, featuring audio and video libraries, internet cover fetching, Last.fm basic integration and song submission and plenty more. The latest version, 1.0, was released recently and it brought many improvements over the previous releases.
To compile it in Debian, make sure to have all the dependencies installed, so type as root:
apt-get build-dep banshee
apt-get install libmono-addins-gui0.2-cil
Note: Ubuntu users, precede these commands with sudo.
Next, download the source code from here, uncompress it, change the current working directory to banshee-1-1.0.0 and follow the usual steps:
./configure
make
make install
The last one as root. Banshee should now be installed, and to run it, type banshee-1 in a terminal.
Banshee 1.0.0

Banshee 1.0 is already in the Debian Unstable's official repository. It probably wont take more than few days until it is in testing too.

So there is no need to compile it from sources by yourself, unless you are using Debian Etch like I do. But even if you are using Etch then it's much better to backport the banshee debian-package from Lenny to Etch as soon as it's in Lenny.
