Package: abcde
Version: 2.1.20-1
Severity: normal
I used abcde to rip a cd in batch normalizing mode to mp3 (mp2
actually) format with toolame. The first part went fine, until toolame
started. That resulted in an error. Here is the relevant part of the
logfile made by 'abcde -D 2>logfile':
-----
+ TRACKFILES= track1.wav track2.wav track3.wav track4.wav
+ nice -n 10 toolame --nogap track1.wav track2.wav track3.wav track4.wav
toolame: unrec option -
toolame: unrec option n
toolame: -p model must be 1 or 2, not track1.wav
+ RETURN=1
+ '[' 1 '!=' 0 ']'
+ echo 'batch-encode: returned code 1'

In my abcde.conf I have "BATCH=y". Setting this to "BATCH=n" solves
this. "BATCH=y" is responsible for inserting '--nogap'. I don't know
what that is supposed to be doing, but it is only meant for use with
lame, and I am using toolame as that is free software: "LAME=toolame"
in abcde.conf.
I see two possible solutions:
1. Check if LAME really is lame and not toolame or some other mp3
encoder. If so, then go ahead and insert '--nogap' in the generated
command. Else don't.
2. Don't tie the '--nogap' insertion to the setting of BATCH. Make a
new option NOGAP or something for that.
Other than that, abcde is a brilliant time saver. Thanks!
BTW, dpkg -l toolame:

This was fixed by splitting the BATCH option into BATCHNORM and NOGAP in
version 2.3.99
However this bug didn't get closed at that time.
