As reported by media-sound/easytag, id3lib currently has a bug when writing certain unicode characters. Detailed information can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1016290&group_id=979&atid=300979 It would be nice if this patch was included in Portage.
Created attachment 85239 [details, diff] bug fix patch attached for convenience
Created attachment 85630 [details] patched ebuild This is the patched ebuild. It uses the preceding patch named as files/id3lib-3.8.3-utf8.patch It works for me (both compiling and using with easytag).
The above patch and ebuild work also fine for me here.
any plan to get this in the tree or do we have to wait for an upstream update ?
Works for me too. Since id3lib dosen't seem to be actively developed anymore and source in cvs is several years old it would be good to bring this (and possibly few other bugfixes posted on id3lib page) onto gentoo ebuild.
I posted a mail on the devel mailong list that is waiting for approval for about a week now and still no sign of life from them. Please release a new ebuild that we can push to stable.
+1 works for me. Looking forward to an updated ebuild.

Fixed in -r5, thanks for the patience.
We need unicode support in id3lib, at least Easytag is using it and affected by this bug. So, archteams please stabilize media-libs/id3lib-3.8.3-r5 for unicode support.

sparc stable, though Rej is right, FEATURES=test does some ugly stuff so i suggest you just RESTRICT=test or fix the testsuite.
