The reason for my annoyance is not the community that has worked on this, after all there is a patch (even if not completely working?) but that cananonical has done nothing to push this out to users, not even as 'proposed' for testing.
And it is not just things like the music player, that you might assume is not important. Bugs of a serious nature such as bug #669808 have had nothing done 6 months after they are accepted, and LONG after the community had patched them. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to rhythmbox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/787475 Title: Rhythmbox [0.12.8] & [0.12.5] Not Fetching Album Information From MusicBrainz Status in The Rhythmbox Music Management Application: Fix Released Status in “rhythmbox” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: May 24th, 2011 On my two Ubuntu machines Rhythmbox is not fetching album tagging information from MusicBrainz even though the information exists on the MusicBrainz database. I checked with the picard program I had on the machines. The CD lookup revealed the tagging information in picard.
