Bug#676478: cuetools: please consider depending on id3v2 | python-mutagen
Package: cuetools
Version: 1.3.1-12
Severity: wishlist
Hi.
cuetools depends on id3v2 which is currently badly broken (see its
bugreports and their age).
OTOH, mid3v2 from python-mutagen is a drop-in replacement for id3v2 with
many fixes (and is actively maintained upstream).
Therefore, it would be great to have cuetools be updated to have its
dependencies be satisfied by python-mutagen instead of forcing a broken
package on the users.
Regards.
