Package: libtag1c2a Version: 1.4-4 Severity: normal
amaroK from latest debian etch writes ID3 tags competely incorrectly. I'm reporting bug against taglib because it handles the tags themself. ID3v1 tags should contain ISO-8859-1, ID3v2 tags should contain ISO-8895-1 or Unicode. In present state it writes: ~% id3v2 -l newtaglib.mp3 id3v1 tag info for newtaglib.mp3: Title : >G5<C =5 2 =0<>@4=8:0E? Artist: E/D ▒8=-70-70 Album : Year: 0 , Genre: A Capella (123) Comment: Track: 0 ~% That is, unicode in ID3v1 (violation) and no ID3v2 tag. You can also diagnose this problem with easytag - easytag shows broken tag for amaroK-tagged files and marks file red (== broken, I guess) if you strip ID3v1 tag with `which id3v2`. That happen if I use ru_RU.KOI8-R locale and cyrillic tags. This is very serious bug because it breaks user files, making tags unusable in any app short taglib-powered. Note that it writes correct ID3v1 tag if I happen to use latin script, but still no sensible ID3v2. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-k7 Locale: LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R, LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R (charmap=KOI8-R) Versions of packages libtag1c2a depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-19 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-19 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime libtag1c2a recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
