--- Begin Message ---Package: yaret Version: 2.1.0-5 Severity: normal The flac_cushion.pl script distributed as /usr/share/yaret/flac_cushion.pl seems to use the --set-vc-field metaflac option which does not exist with current metaflac (according to metaflac(1)). Furthermore, even though metaflac most certainly fails due to the unknown option (exit code 1, tested on the commandline), the flac_cushion.pl scripts still exits with success (code 0), thus the user is not informed by yaret of the metaflac invocation failure. The patch included below fixes the first of these problems, but not the latter, as I'm pretty illiterate in Perl (and too lazy to RFTM ATM). --- /usr/share/yaret/flac_cushion.pl 2006-03-05 20:32:29.000000000 +0100 +++ /home/rotty/bin/yaret-flac 2011-09-14 22:02:05.061814267 +0200 @@ -23,12 +23,12 @@ $album, $tracknum, $artist, $genre, $year) = @ARGV; system "flac", "-o", $fout, "-$qual", $fin; unless ($?) { - system "metaflac", "--set-vc-field=TITLE=$track", - "--set-vc-field=ALBUM=$album", - "--set-vc-field=ARTIST=$artist", - "--set-vc-field=TRACKNUMBER=$tracknum", - "--set-vc-field=GENRE=$genre", - "--set-vc-field=YEAR=$year", + system "metaflac", "--set-tag=TITLE=$track", + "--set-tag=ALBUM=$album", + "--set-tag=ARTIST=$artist", + "--set-tag=TRACKNUMBER=$tracknum", + "--set-tag=GENRE=$genre", + "--set-tag=YEAR=$year", $fout; exit 0; } Regards, Rotty -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_AT.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages yaret depends on: ii cdparanoia 3.10.2+debian-10 ii flac 1.2.1-5 ii libappconfig-perl 1.66-1 ii libaudio-cd-perl 0.05-9+b1 ii perl 5.12.4-4 ii vorbis-tools 1.4.0-1 yaret recommends no packages. yaret suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
