When using media-sound/abcde-2.8.1 to query for CDDB data (with MusicBrainz), abcde emits this error: $ abcde -kp -o ogg:flac -V Executing customizable pre-read function... done. Getting CD track info... dasd: 1 6 150 86369 0 9873 22503 42024 59157 70868 Can't locate WebService/MusicBrainz/Release.pm in @INC (you may need to install the WebServ ice::MusicBrainz::Release module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.26.1/x 86_64-linux /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.26.1 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26.1/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.26.1 /usr/lib64/perl5/5.26.1/x86_64-linux /usr/lib64/perl5/5 .26.1) at /usr/bin/abcde-musicbrainz-tool line 19. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/abcde-musicbrainz-tool line 19. (Ctrl-C'd as it rips the CD without gathering information) I looked into the problem and found that dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz-1.0.2 introduces a single entry point for its (new) API v2. media-sound/abcde is using the prior API (including latest from git upstream), explaining the breakage. Downgrading to dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz-0.940.0 fixes the problem and abcde will correctly fetch data from MusicBrainz. Proposed Solution: RDEPEND="musicbrainz? ( <dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz-1.0.2 )" Both abcde-2.5.4-r1 and abcde-2.8.1 will need this dependency updated. emerge --info abcde WebService-MusicBrainz: Portage 2.3.13 (python 3.4.6-final-0,

This is a simple version incompatibility. I put the following in /etc/portage/package.mask/package.mask and it solved the problem: # Changes break abcde >=dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz-1.0.2 I expect it would make sense to update the ebuild for abcde to make the dependency on an older version of dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz, and then as long as you don't have to have a newer version for something else, everything is fine. Hopefully this will be fixed upstream someday, but it's now been a year since the last release of abcde, so who knows?
There is an upstream bug about this and it has now been fixed: https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60 A new version (2.9.1) was released a few months ago.
FWIW, current version 2.9.3 (released last month) built and ran OK for me on ~amd64 just by revbumping the 2.8.1 ebuild.
As of 1 Aug 2018 metabrainz deprecated the v1 API and therefore afaict <dev-perl/WebService-MusicBrainz-1 is no longer functional (at least will not work for abcde). Use of v1 returns the link below which is the deprecation announcement: https://blog.metabrainz.org/2018/02/01/web-service-ver-1-0-ws-1-will-be-removed-in-6-months/
This has been fixed upstream. You can close the bug.
(In reply to Preston Crow from comment #5) > This has been fixed upstream. You can close the bug. I think the bug was mainly about missing dependencies. Anyway, said dependencies seem to be in the ebuild now. See also bug 689090.
