the "changelog" file from the 2.5.4 tarball: abcde 2.5.4 * Update GPL/FSF headers to match current versions. Thanks to vskytta for the patch. (Closes issue 69). * Fix the command line for ID3SYNTAX=eyed3. Thanks to neil.gm.richards for the patch. Closes issue 50. * Switch to eyed3 by default for MP3 tagging, as it looks to do UTF-8 tagging better.
