You added good info to the bug report. I added some more thoughts on the bug report now. Can you have a look at them and (if you agree with them) update the package at mentors accordingly ?

I hope my last message covers your questions. If the -b option does nothing then the manpage could be modified to mention that. Fixed. The entries 0.3.2-2 and 0.3.2-1.1 in debian/changelog have lines with one leading space too many. Fixed The uncommenting of dh_testroot in debian/rules is not mentioned in debian/changelog. My mistake, I haven't copied the latest debian/rules file from the last upload of Emfox Zhou. Now fixed. It would be great if you could sponsor the package. My next step is to communicate with the Release Managers to unblock the package. Regards, Chris. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Please explain on the bug report what's wrong and why you believe that disabling the -b option (actually making mpg321 silently ignore the -b option) would be the best approach in this context. I don't know if you have noticed an abnormal behavior when trying to use the -b option but occasionally mpg321 crashes, stops playing the song, plays the song without syncing with the second process that outputs the song or the reverse. Never starts playing an mp3 file or crashes when someone tries to play a file that is not an mp3. All those situations does not happen when you are not using -b option. I am trying to solve the problem but I haven't figured where the fault is. So I prefer to silently as you say ignore the -b option and preserve the package in the previous state, so to provide a stable version that won't make problems to users or other packages that try or might use this new feature. If the -b option does nothing then the manpage could be modified to mention that. I will fix that and re-upload the package. The entries 0.3.2-2 and 0.3.2-1.1 in debian/changelog have lines with one leading space too many. Haven't noticed that, I will fix it. The uncommenting of dh_testroot in debian/rules is not mentioned in debian/changelog. I will fix that also. Regards, Chris.
