The main issue is that id3lib isn't maintained upstream. Every code change I
make is basically forking it a little more, making things incompatible with
other distributions, and I'm hesitant to do that.

The other large issue is that I don't have the time or knowledge to do
upstream maintenance, which is what the package has needed. You can have it
if you want, otherwise I'll see if I can do an upload with that patch this
weekend. Out of curiosity did you test it?
