Package: mp3gain Version: 1.4.6-7 Severity: normal I've found at least one song on which mp3gain reports completely wrong values. This only occurs on i386 systems, amd64 reports the correct values.
I've tested this on two lenny i386 systems (the one I'm reporting this from is a vserver guest with an amd64 kernel on the host but the other machine is physical and purely 32 bit). I've also tested on one lenny amd64 machine, and one each of Ubuntu Intrepid i386 and amd64. The Ubuntu package has exactly the same version number - 1.4.6-7. Only the lenny i386 version reports incorrect values. All the other versions are consistent with each other, and sound correct, while the lenny i386 version is far too loud and distorted. I don't want to post the song anywhere public for obvious copyright reasons but could email it to a developer. Examples of program output follow.
