Thanks a lot for looking at this! I'm sorry I've left this 
dragging for
so long, let me get my act together and complete this :-).

About the bundling, I agree this is problematic and I'm afraid I 
haven't
been able to get rid of all of them. The remaining libs still 
bundled
are:

 - qxt: It appears to have gone unmaintained and Clementine devs 
 have
   updated it for it to work with qt5.

 - qtsingleapplication: Needs packaging. I might take a stab at 
 it but
   I'm not sure I'll have the time. But, the CMakeLists.txt file 
   says
   the bundled version is patched so I'm unsure just packaging it 
   will
   be enough.

 - gmock: We have gmock in our googletest package but the tests
   segfault with it. The bundled version might be too old.

 - qsqlite: They have bundled the QT sqlite driver:
~~~(CMakeList.txt)
# Build our copy of QSqlLiteDriver.
# We do this because we can't guarantee that the driver shipped 
 with Qt exposes the
# raw sqlite3_ functions required for FTS support. This way we 
 know that those symbols
# exist at compile-time and that our code links to the same sqlite 
 library as the
# Qt driver.
~~~
 I tried to build a version a qtbase with sqlite-with-fts3 as 
 input
 instead of sqlite, to see if that could be a replacement. But 
 the
 symbols where still not found so I'm unsure what to do here.

 Finally, I haven't had the time to look at those last two:
 - qocoa
 - qtiocompressor

I was able to unbundle "libmygpo-qt" (new package) and "sha2" 
(replaced
by openssl).

So, as it turns out only libmygpo-qt's QT4 version was depending 
on
qjson, so this is no longer necessary for clementine!

Thanks again! I have update the patch to remove the unbundled libs 
and
enabled testing.
