Yes, that looks like the problem. It would be great if the Debian package could support MP4/AAC, but I don't think the necessary libraries are in Debian.
When I tried to rebuild the Debian package with the third party mpeg4ip DEBs from rarewares, it fails to build with this error: mp4_tag.o: In function `Mp4tag_Write_File_Tag': /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:357: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataGenre' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:399: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataCoverArt' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:254: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataName' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:276: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataAlbum' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:265: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataArtist' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:328: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataYear' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:346: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataTrack' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:390: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataTool' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:379: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataWriter' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:368: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataComment' /usr/src/easytag-1.99.8/src/mp4_tag.c:317: undefined reference to `MP4DeleteMetadataDisk' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status I suppose that this bug should perhaps be re-classified as a wishlist bug to include MP4/AAC support and/or the documentation should be clarified that there is not currently MP4/AAC support in Debian.
