There (was) a fairly old bug about the issue on sound-juicer which has just been closed. Essentially, what has happened is that libmb3 uses the 'version 1' web services API. At some point upstream made a big schema change to 'next generation schema' or NGS - they then adapted their version 1 API to work on top of NGS as best as possible, but with difficulty since it was fairly tightly coupled to the old schema. As a consequence, some things (such as multi-disc releases) are not handled properly. The NGS change was brought in May 2011, so the problem has been around since then. It's fixed by using libmb4, which uses version 2 of the API, which is coupled to the NGS. The timing is basically my fault, here. A few weeks ago I finally got sick enough of this bug in sound-juicer to try and chase it down for good. In doing so, I made a list of libmb3 users, and that's how I discovered goobox - I hadn't heard of it before then. The MB4 library came out in January so anyone who noticed could have scratched the itch at any time in the last 6 months. > If you are willing to subscribe to the package until release and fix > any issues popping up due to the NMU, I'm fine with it.

One good thing about this is I discovered goobox which looks pretty cool :) I'll prepare and upload the NMU on Tuesday. I will plan to use a DELAYED queue but not one that misses the wheezy deadline.
