RFS: libmp3-tag-perl -- Module for reading tags of MP3 audio files
Hello.
As my previous sponsor isn't responding to emails, I'm seeking a new
sponsor for libmp3-tag-perl (MP3::Tag, a perl module for reading and
writing ID3v1 and ID3v2 tags in mp3 files).
The major changes from a packaging perspective relative to the last
version in debian are the promotion of several example scripts to
/usr/bin, which require special handling:
typeset_audio_dir outputs LaTeX lists and cd covers from directories
of audio files. To process the output the user needs LaTeX and the
LaTeX class cd-cover.cls.
I got this from:
http://www.tug.org/cgi-bin/dirarchive/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/cd-cover.tgz
and put it in the cd-cover/ directory in the source tree. I built it by
running 'tex cd-cover.ins'. It is not built as part of the debian build process,
just installed with dh_install.
I checked this and the other tex-related stuff with the people on
debian-tetex-maint, and they are happy with my approach. I only
Suggest: the latex stuff so people aren't forced to install it just to
use the library. cd-cover.cls is part of tex-live (but not tetex) so
eventually I could just Suggest: that and not ship the class myself,
but tex-live is not guaranteed to make it in for etch.
Two other scripts promoted to /usr/bin/, mp3info2 and audio_rename,
have optional extra functionality enabled by adding
/usr/share/doc/libmp3-tag-perl/examples/mod/ to PERLLIB.
After discussion with upstream, I've decided to leave this situation
as is, and just document it in README.Debian.
If you rebuild this for upload, please include -v0.97-1 to
dpkg-buildpackage so it picks up the Closes: from earlier changelog
entries.
The package was built with pbuilder and is lintian/linda clean.
