          simple awk instead. Should now work on FreeBSD again.
        + Deal with bizarre cdda2wav behaviour when doing cdtext lookup - it
          writes the track information to *stdin*. Closes Issue #89:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89
        + Add a warning in abcde.conf about mayb needing to install recode before

  • abcde (2.9-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version with various improvements and bugfixes:
        + Add some documentation for the aged CD ripper dagrab. Thanks to 
          Teika Kazura for the notification and suggested documentation. This 
          closes Issue 50: https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50
        + Work by Matthias Andree <email address hidden> to address the issue
          where abcde fails with accented characters from CD-TEXT. The issue and
          partial fix applied here documented in Issue 53:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53
          and also in the abcde mailing list:
          https://lists.einval.com/pipermail/abcde-users/2017-January/000232.html
        + Allow for embedding of  album art downloaded by the getalbumart function. 
          Currently this is available for flac (using metaflac), mp3 (using eyed3),
          m4a (using AtomicParsley) and WavPack aka wv (using wvtag).
          This can be invoked in 3 ways:
    
          1. Use the commandline '-B' option (this will also call getalbumart)
          2. Use the commandline '-a embedalbumart' option to add to list of actions
          3. Use 'embedalbumart' in the 'ACTIONS' list in ~/.abcde.conf
    
          Still needs more development but it is perfectly usable at the moment!
        + Use md5 rather than md5sum under macOS. Thanks to JCount for the bug
          report and also the fix. This solves Issue 59:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59
        + Support added for encoding with Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF). 
          Thanks to Massimo Villa for the feature request. FFmpeg is required
          for the encoding, the container and suffix are 'aiff'.
        + Allow selection of either cddb or musicbrainz from the command line:
          -Q Select CDDBMETHOD from the command line. Choice is cddb or musicbrainz.
        + Command line letters are fast running out but the 'Q' option quite neatly
          stands for 'Query'!
        + Allow for embedding with do_embedalbumart() for single track encodes when
          OUTPUTFORMAT and ONETRACKOUTPUTFORMAT are different. Thanks to
    	  Ashley Gittins for the bug report. This closes Issue 63:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63
        + Experimental support for embedding albumart with ogg files. The slightly
          tortuous technique drawn from 2 sources:
    
          1. https://github.com/biapy/howto.biapy.com/blob/master/various/mussync-tools
          2. https://github.com/acabal/scripts/blob/master/ogg-cover-art
    
          Testing is strongly encouraged, perhaps the simplest way to test is with:
             abcde -o ogg -B
           Or the appropriate settings in an ~/.abcde.conf file.
        + Massive rework of CD lookup code so support multiple sources
          better. Thanks to Gabriel Rosenkoetter for his initial idea in this
          area, and to Tomasz Goliński on irc for initial inspiration on how
          this should work better.
          There are now 3 different options for CD lookup: cddb, musicbrainz and
          cdtext. They can all be listed in a comma-separated list for
          CDDBMETHOD and the code will now call all of them in the sequence
          listed. All the results will be combined into one list at the end for
          the user to select, just like would have previously worked for one
          source only. Closes Issue 42:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42
    	  Closes: #842180
        + Fix Musicbrainz ID calculation in makeids()
          Apply fix suggested by <email address hidden>; add PREGAP to
          LEADOUT to correct Musicbrainz ID calculation. Hopefully closes
          Issue 54: https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54
    	  Closes: #892071
        + Fix abcde.mkcue() when handling the --wholedisk option. Thanks to
          Nino Burini for the patch. Closes Issue 47 and maybe also 45:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45
        + Add more comprehensive examples for filename munging in the example
          config file. Closes Issue 49:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49
        + Add a more better fix for the year lookup problem in
    	  abcde-musicbrainz-tool
          Thanks to Tom Samstag for the patch. Closes Issue 57:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57
        + Redirect stderr on "which" calls to clear up error noise on some
          systems. Closes Issue 56:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56
        + Add Irix support, based on a patch by <email address hidden>. Closes Issue 29:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29
        + Rework abcde-musicbrainz-tool to work with WebService::MusicBrainz 1.x
          Thanks to Nicolas Guillaumin for the patch. Closes Issue 60:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60
          Also added a specific dependency on version 1.0.4 or newer, so
          abcde-musicbrainz-tool will abort if the version found is too old.
          Since tweaked to deal with multi-artist albums and tracks more
          completely.
        + Add resume support in do_getalbumart()
        + Fix getopts setup for "P". Thanks to Alan W. Kerr for reporting this.
        + Major set of code cleanups to fix up lots of warnings found with
          shellcheck, and a few other style issues:
          - Lots of quoting fixes
          - Use $( instead of `
          - Stop using -o and -a syntax with if [ - use || or && instead
          - Wrap and shorten some very long lines
        + Wrap some output messages so they fit on a standard width console
        + Factor out repeated code and make page() more useful
        + Add version check before resuming from an old ripping run
      * Fix up wrong years in old changelog entries. Closes: #852745
      * New MusicBrainz code fixes lots of things. Closes: #864006
      * Move the Recommends on musicbrainz perl modules to Depends now that
        MusicBrainz is the default CD lookup method.
      * Add a version to the Depends on libwebservice-musicbrainz-perl - we
     	now need 1.0.4 or newer.
      * Various minor packaging updates:
        + Update Standards-Version to 4.1.3
        + Update debhelper version
        + Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt)
        + Update the long description to update the list of output formats

  • abcde (2.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium
      * New upstream version with various improvements and bugfixes:

          for m4a encding via ~/.abcde.conf file but best not to :).
        + Split user-definable mungefilename function into mungetrackname,
          mungeartistname, and mungealbumname, each of which default to

          request. This closes Issue 39:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39
        + FAQs: Clarify the exit from multi-result CDDB search.
        + Fix to allow multiple output formats when aac fallback is triggered.

          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35
        + Fix for some erroneous error and status logging. Thanks to Christian
          Wasem for the bug report and fix. This closes Issue 32:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32
        + Add support for trying multiple CD lookup services in order. Thanks to
          Gabriel Rosenkoetter for the patch. Closes Issue 42:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42
        + Add Recommends on glyrc and imagemagick in Debian packaging.
          Closes: #827626
        + Fix up handling of the first few sectors when reading

        + Tweak the fix in musicbrainz for handling sketchy returned data
          some more. Hopefully closes Issue 30:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30
        + Re-enable some commented out cdparanoia/debug code in do_discid.
          Closes Issue 14:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14

          e.g. non-ascii text in track titles!
          Closes Issue 24:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24

  • abcde (2.7.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version with various improvements and bugfixes:
        + When using musicbrainz, don't assume that there will be release
          events attached to a particular CD release. Bug fix for the addition
          of year information support in 2.7.1. Thanks to Ed Oehler and Alan W.
          Kerr for debugging help.
        + Support for output to the Matroska container (mka). Encoder
          is FFmpeg (or avconv). Thanks to Shantiq and Fakeoutdoorsman of
          the Ubuntu Forums for the idea.
        + Add id3tag mp3 tagger as this is the tagger available to
          OpenBSD users. Thanks to Christopher Zimmermann for the
          notification and patch.
        + Allow for cddb response 500. Thanks again to Von Welch for the
          bug report and patch. This closes Issue 26:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26
        + Fix for 'expansion of $REDIR' bug on MacOSX. Thanks to Von Welch
          for the bug report. This closes Issue 22:
          https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22
        + Makefile adjusted to allow the sample abcde.conf file to be
          installed by default to /etc rather than $(prefix)/etc.
          Thanks to Volker Schmidt from archlinux for the bug report:
          https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/46671

  • abcde (2.7.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream version, with lots of improvements and bugfixes:
        + Rebuild of the abcde Makefile. Thanks to Reuben Thomas and Steve
          McIntyre as well as ReaperX7, bobzilla, 55020, GazL and dugan from
          the Slackware Forums. This closes Issue 4:
          http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4
        + Fix incorrect use of 'break'. Thanks to Reuben Thomas for the
          bug report and fix which closes Issue 6:
          http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6
        + Make older versions of id3 happy when 'Genre' field is empty.
          Thanks to Martin Husemann for the fix which closes Issue 8:
          http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8
        + Add YEAR and GENRE variables to do_getalbumart(). Thanks to
          Johannes Gernemann for this patch which closes issue 9:
          http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9
        + Support added for encoding to True Audio using tta while still
          supporting the older ttaenc. Tagging is with mid3v2.
        + Support added for encoding to MPEG-1 Audio Layer II (mp2)
          with either twolame or FFmpeg / avconv. Tagging with mid3v2.
        + Encoding to WavPack with FFmpeg. Some slight changes to WavPack
          syntax with backward compatibility built in for abcde 2.7.
        + Encoding to m4a container with FFmpeg or avconv. This allows
          for alac encoding with FFmpeg's reverse engineered alac encoder.
        + AAC encoding with fhgaacenc via Wine. Tagging is provided
          by AtomicParsley which has been added back to abcde :). This
          allows encoding with HE-AAC v2, unavailable with qaac.
        + Support added for AAC encoding with qaac via Wine. This
          also allows for Apple Lossless Audio Coding (alac) using
          either qaac or refalac. This closes Issue 142, thanks to
          Bernd Fischer-Krellenberg for the enhancement request.
        + Grab year information too when using musicbrainz. Thanks to
          Marco Hoppstaedter for the patch. Closes issue 10:
          http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10

  • abcde (2.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * Remove Jesus and Colin from Maintainer and Uploaders fields, as
        they've moved on. Thanks to both for their efforts!
      * Update the Vcs- fields to point to current upstream.
      * Clarify the old "public domain" mention in the license, now removed
        upstream.
      * Remove TODO file, removed upstream
      * New upstream version, with lots of improvements and bugfixes:
        + Rewrite of abcde's mungefilename function. Thanks to 
          Andreas Kusalananda Kahari for this and also thanks
          to Andrew Willis for the report which triggered the
          rewrite. Thanks also to shughes for an earlier report.
          This closes Issues 72 and 135.
        + TRACKTOTAL now written to flac and ogg files. Thanks to 
          monkth for the notification. This resolves Issue 76.
        + Support added for the downloading of album art. A huge
          thank you to Johannes Gernemann who came forward with
          the technique used and also the original patch. An equally
          huge thanks to Richard who extended and greatly enhanced
          the original patch. Detailed documentation added to the
          abcde FAQ document although the sane defaults in place
          will guarantee a good experience even for those who do
          not read documentation! This closes Issue 33.
        + Support added for ripping with the GNU Compact Disc 
          Input and Control library (libcdio) as requested by
          both gentoo and NixOS. The utility used is cd-paranoia
          and can best be called from a conf file as follows:
    
           CDROMREADERSYNTAX=libcdio       
           CD_PARANOIA=cd-paranoia  
           CDPARANOIAOPTS="--never-skip=40 --verbose"
    
          with the CD_PARANOIA variable giving the correct path 
          to cd-paranoia. I believe that cd-paranoia uses the same
          options as cdparanoia but if I am proven incorrect this 
          will need to be rectified...
        + Fix for encoding with bladeenc and usepipes.
        + Fix for broken ripping with dagrab. Closes Issue 140.
        + Fix for diskutil selecting wrong disk on OS X. Thanks
          to Richard for this fix which closes Issue 139.
        + Added some error checking and documentation for
          the abcde-musicbrainz-tool. Thanks yet again to
          Matthias Andree for this work! Closes issue 138.
        + New variables for m4a/aac encoding options to be 
          manipulated in a users ~/.abcde.conf file:
           1. FAACENCOPTS for faac encoding options
           2. NEROAACENCOPTS for neroAacEnc options
           3. FDKAACENCOPTS for fdkaacenc options
          Note that these options replace the now obsolete AACENCOPTS.
        + Check added for neroAacTag when encoding with neroAacEnc.
        + Several additions to usepipes with the following encoders 
          being added:
            1. mp3enc: mp3
            2. speexenc: Speex
            3. mpcenc: Musepack SV8
            4. wavpack: WavPack
            5. faac: aac
            6. neroAacEnc: aac
            7. fdkaac: aac
          The cd ripper cdda2wav (icedax) has also been added.
        + Ripping and encoding with 'usepipes' fixed. This fix
          closes Issue 46.
        + Suggested encoding options for mp3enc added to the sample
          abcde.conf. Last release of mp3enc in 1998 but it still
          works flawlessly with a modern abcde!
        + Suggested encoding options for l3enc added to the sample
          abcde.conf. Congratulations to abcde which in 2015 still 
          works with l3enc which saw its final release in 1997!
        + Fix for -o option use with options and multiple outputs.
          This allows for commandline options such as the following:
                abcde -o 'flac:-8,mp3:-b 320' 
          Thanks to Matthias Andree for yet another quality patch! 
          This closes Issue 136.
        + Support added for ReplayGain with WavPack encoding.
        + Fix for MusePack to allow the use of the SV8 ReplayGain 
          application 'mpcgain'.
        + Monkey's Audio (ape) encoding added. Tagging is with
