Description Andreas Simon 2003-01-07 11:51:45 UTC
media-libs/id3lib in Gentoo is still version 3.8.0.
Although the website still says latest version 3.8.0,
version 3.8.2 was released on 2002-11-23 and can be found under
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=979

It fixes some bugs from 3.8.0 like issues with lyrics tags, and adds vbr and
streaming support.

The only application I know of which uses id3lib (and which is in Gentoo) is
media-sound/easytag. This application must be recompiled after upgrading id3lib
from 3.8.0 to 3.8.2.

BTW, I use id3lib 3.8.2 together with easytag since 2002-11-29 and the random
crashes from easytag I had before the upgrade vanished since then.

The old ebuild from version 3.8.0 works fine with version 3.8.2 but the gcc 3
patch is not needed anymore. Thus the following part of the ebuild can be deleted:

<
<       if [ "`gcc --version | cut -f1 -d.`" == "3" ] ||
<          ([ -n "${CXX}" ] && [ "`${CXX} --version | cut -f1 -d.`" == "3" ]) ||
<          [ "`gcc --version|grep gcc|cut -f1 -d.|cut -f3 -d\ `" == "3" ]
<       then
<               cd ${S}
<               # Removed azarah's patch for _pre2 (doesn't seem to be
<               # necessary for gcc3.2), added the following for 3.8.0 from
<               # Michael Best <gentoo@pendragon.org> (Bug #6840)
<               patch -p0 <${FILESDIR}/${P}-gcc3.patch || die
<       fi
