Public bug reported:
Easytag uses id3lib for manipulation mp3 tags. As of version 1.99.12, it checks
whether unicode support in id3lib works. It does not work in latest release.
Unfortunately, id3lib is unmaintained for some time, s oonly a patch exist,
that repairs unicode support. It can be downloaded from easytag sourceforge
download page alongside with id3lib: http://easytag.sourceforge.net/ - patch is
called patch_id3lib_3.8.3_UTF16_writing_bug.diff. I think it would be great if
this patch would be included in Ubuntu - it is so not now, because I compiled
latest version of easytag and it complained about it, so I had to compile
id3lib with that patch, which was not exactly easy.
Otherwise, I was unable to save tags properly with local chars of my language.
** Affects: id3lib3.8.3 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Untriaged
Status: Unconfirmed
