Package: gmusicbrowser
Version: 1.1.10-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I've already reported this as a followup to bug #720760, but since
that has been marked "fixed" without correcting any of the problems I
pointed out I suppose I'd better give it its own bug number. (I only
count package description nitpicks like this as "wishlist", though.)
"http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=10;bug=720760"
To repeat my review in abbreviated form:
> Description: graphic jukebox for large collections of mp3/ogg/flac/mpc files
* Word choice: you mean "graphical", not "graphic".
* There's no need to list all the file formats here.
* (And they shouldn't be all-lowercase anyway.)
* Saying that the collection is made up of files is also redundant.
> gmusicbrowser is a powerful graphic browser which supports libraries with
> a great number of songs (>10,000)
* Word choice: the number is "large", not "great".
* Use words ("above"), not mathematical notation (">").
* Missing final punctuation.
> .
> It can use multiple inputs and plays MP3, OGG and flac files; it also
> supports
* This list of file formats contradicts the synopsis!
* The canonical names are "MP3", "Ogg", and "FLAC".
> mass-renaming and mass-retagging of a song library, multiple genres per song,
> ratings and customizable labels
* This paragraph should be at least two sentences.
* Missing final punctuation.
> .
> The window layout is also customizable and it ships natively plugins to use
* Bad elision: these clauses have different subjects.
* Misplaced adverb "natively".
* The Debian package doesn't "ship" plugins, it "includes" them.
> last.fm, retrieve lyrics, find album pictures and WebContext which, through
* Broken-backed list (especially the relative subclause).
* Word choice: "using", not "through".
> the mozilla/webkit engine will display the wikipedia artist's page and search
> lyrics with google.
* Unclear subject of "will display".
* Wrong word order in "the wikipedia artist's page".
* You don't "search lyrics", you "search for lyrics".
* The canonical names are Last.fm/Mozilla/WebKit/Wikipedia/Google.
Revised version:

| It can use multiple inputs and has native support for MP3, Ogg, and
| FLAC files. It also supports mass-renaming and mass-retagging of a song
