Bug Description
I am trying to backup a CD to a single flac file with an embedded cuesheet using the following command:
$ abcde -1 -M -o flac
abcde exits after the first track. It should rip the entire album to a single flac file. The cue file is succesfully generated and references all 15 tracks though.
Running dapper, abcde version: 2.3.99.2-1
This is the full output from abcde:
*******
$ abcde -1 -M -o flac
Grabbing entire CD - tracks: 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15
Which entry would you like abcde to use (0 for none)? [0-2]: 2
Selected: #2 (Pressure Drop / Elusive)
---- Pressure Drop / Elusive ----
Year:
Genre: Trip-Hop

I am using a dvd-rom in an external usb2 enclosure for extraction, but I don't think that makes a difference as I don't have any problems ripping this cd to flac without the single-track option.

Mystery solved. It would appear that the man page is slightly ahead of
abcde's capabilities. According to the upstream changelog, CD backup to
a single flac file was implemented in 2.3.99.3. Current version in
dapper is only 2.3.99.2, yet the man page describes this feature. I have
installed 2.3.99.5 from sid and this feature works as described.
