Full Text Bug Listing

Graveman relies on sox to write CDs from mp3 and ogg. Probably it parses sox -h
output to figure it out. This output changed in 12.18.* compared to 12.17.* So
now I can't write audio CDs from ogg or mp3.

workaround: install 12.17.* and the make graveman recognize that, and then
reinstall the new sox.

or
copy the output below into a bash script named sox in /usr/bin and fool
graveman...

Global options (gopts):

Global options can be specified anywhere on the command

-h              print version number and usage information
--help          same as -h
--help-efffect=name
                print usage of specified effect.  use 'all' to print all
-p              run in preview mode and run fast
-q              run in quite mode.  Inverse of -S option
-S              print status while processing audio data.
--version       print version number of SoX and exit
-V              verbose mode.  print a description during processing phase

Format options (fopts):

Format options only need to be supplied on input files that are
headerless otherwise they are obtained from the audio data's header.
Output files will default to the same format options as the input
file unless overriden on the command line.

-c channels     number of channels in audio data
-e              skip processing of this filename.  useful only
                on output filename to prevent writing data.
-r rate         sample rate of audio
-t filetype     file type of audio
-v volume       volume adjustment factor (floating point)
-x              invert auto-detected endianess of data
-s/-u/-U/-A/    sample encoding.  signed/unsigned/u-law/A-law
  -a/-i/-g/-f   ADPCM/IMA_ADPCM/GSM/floating point
-b/-w/-l/-d     sample size. byte(8-bits)/word(16-bits)/
                long(32-bits)/double long(64-bits)

*** Bug 156594 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Adding URL to upstream bug, i'll have look at this.

I just committed graveman-0.3.12_p5-r1 which contains a patch to make graveman
working with sox >=12.18. The problem wasn't changed output, but changed
behaviour - sox-12.17 pushed "-help" output to stderr, 12.18 to stdout. Please
test and report back!

Seems to be working.
