I've left osd-lyrics-git alone, orphaned osd-lyrics, and removed the others.
I've left a comment on the osd-lyrics-stable page to send out a notification
first, and I've sent an email to the osd-lyrics-stable maintainer requesting
that he adopt osd-lyrics, change the name of his package, and re-upload.
Thanks,
Xyne
