Control: tags -1 + patch

Here is the patch I backported from upstream to the older version in
Debian.  I just uploaed it in 0.6.18-3 as
debian/patches/CVE-2014-1934.patch.

Description: Avoid insecure use of file in /tmp/
 Based on upstream fix for CVE-2014-1934, 
 <URL: https://bitbucket.org/nicfit/eyed3/commits/372bbacb7a70 >,
 adjusted to cope with the older version of the code.
