Bug Description

Binary package hint: easytag

Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
Using latest version as per Ubuntu 'jaunty' repos

When performing a manual CDDB lookup, the initial search for relevant Artists/Albums completes (if there are results), but the subsequent track lookup fails, citing a HTTP 301 Moved Permanently error. Changing the manual search server details fails.

I've managed to fix this bug by referring to a bug report submitted to Debians's bug tracker (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=527216) using the supplied patch. The patch requires that the manual search host be changed from 'www.gnudb.org' to 'gnudb.org', but it restores proper functionality. The credit for this fix goes to Vladimir Stiff <email address hidden>

Kind regards,

Chris

TEST CASE:
* Select 'www.gnudb.org' as server for manual search (Settings -> Preferences...)
* select a file, Misc -> CD Data Base Search -> Manual Search -> Words, enter a search string and press Find, select an search result

Hi Chris,

I've uploaded the fixed package that I built for you to use:

http://upload.hardc0re.org.uk/view_file.php?uid=117&file=easytag_2.1.4-1.1_i386.deb

I'd suggest you also check out some of the many Debian/Ubuntu tutorials available explaining how to obtain Debian package source code via apt-get, and re-build it yourself. The patch I linked to in my last post needs to be applied to the source code, and then a new package build from that source code.

Hints:

1. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
2. apt-get build-dep easytag
3. Apply the patch ;)
4. Build your .deb

Hope all that helps you!

Chris
