Package: libid3-3.8.3c2a Version: 3.8.3-5
There is a new patch available (attached) from the EasyTag project which fixes unicode support in id3lib. It would be nice to have this fixed in Debian as well. This patch was reported available by Tomas Hnyk <https://launchpad.net/people/thnyk> in a bug report on Ubuntu (Launchpad bug number 54136 - https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/id3lib3.8.3/+bug/54136] I hope this patch will be easy to add to the package, as it is something that will help a lot of users using non-ascii letters in id3 tags.
