I just replied a query to this off-list, so I'll just copy-paste it over:-

Nope, unfortunately not. Too many things need to be backported in order to get
Banshee 2.2 into Lucid, and those would probably require almost every other Gtk#
application to be recompiled as well, so.. not a good idea.

(At least, I recall the problem being something like that. It's in the past and
I don't want to dig around to figure out exactly why I dropped Lucid again.)
