http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4
* Fix incorrect use of 'break'. Thanks to Reuben Thomas for the
bug report and fix which closes Issue 6:
http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6
* Make older versions of id3 happy when 'Genre' field is empty.
Thanks to Martin Husemann for the fix which closes Issue 8:
http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8
* Add YEAR and GENRE variables to do_getalbumart(). Thanks to
Johannes Gernemann for this patch which closes issue 9:
http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9
* Support added for encoding to True Audio using tta while still
supporting the older ttaenc. Tagging is with mid3v2.
* Support added for encoding to MPEG-1 Audio Layer II (mp2)
with either twolame or FFmpeg / avconv. Tagging with mid3v2.
* Encoding to WavPack with FFmpeg. Some slight changes to WavPack
syntax with backward compatibility built in for abcde 2.7.
* Encoding to m4a container with FFmpeg or avconv. This allows
for alac encoding with FFmpeg's reverse engineered alac encoder.
* AAC encoding with fhgaacenc via Wine. Tagging is provided
by AtomicParsley which has been added back to abcde :). This
allows encoding with HE-AAC v2, unavailable with qaac.
* Support added for AAC encoding with qaac via Wine. This
also allows for Apple Lossless Audio Coding (alac) using
either qaac or refalac. This closes Issue 142, thanks to
Bernd Fischer-Krellenberg for the enhancement request.
* Grab year information too when using musicbrainz. Thanks to
Marco Hoppstaedter for the patch. Closes issue 10:

Where CDDA data are filled into the cue sheet, make sure only one
title is used per track, otherwise data would shift by 1 entry and
no title would be left for the last track.
This is still not perfect because there is no (documented) way to
get the audio data within that gap with cdda2wav or cdparanoia, so
the audio data don't match the cue sheet fully, but at least the
cue sheet is not a total mess.

abcde 2.3.1
* The new "I knew there were going to be bugs" upstream release!
* MKCUE needs to be passed some $CDROM as an option, or otherwise it will
not read the CDROM, in case is not /dev/cdrom.
* Also, make the CUEREADER a bit more general, since we might be using other
CUE extractors.

abcde 2.3.0
* New upstream release!
* Defining the tracknumber now resets the first track if given a number
different than 1 (that is: abcde -T 1 2-10 creates songs 1 to 9).
* Modified the FAQ to reflect the changes on Marillat's repo
(Closes: #315724).
* Should be "space" safe: works properly when the working directory contains
a space (Closes: #147493).
* Repared the CD query for the discid code. When failing to read a disc,
actually report that there might be no disc in the drive.
* Right now, walk over the different encoders we Depends: on in Debian and
use the one available: if a user has a FLAC encoder, abcde will no install
vorbis-tools, so it will fail to run out of the box (Closes: #321216)
* Added CUE support. Still experimental...
* Added FLAC on Ogg. Still not activated, since we cannot get comments added
as a post-process action.
* Applied patches from Fedora Core (Credit goes to Nils Philippsen
<nphilipp@redhat.com>)
* Added a post_read() function to be executed before ejecting the CD.
* Typos reported by A Costa corrected (Closes: #311463)
* Problem with abcde being run in a directory with files containing only
numbers solved (Closes: #313628).
* vorbiscomment uses now "-R" (Closes: #303566).
* "-t" and "-T" use the first track as a starter for the track list.
(Closes: #305749).
* Added CDPARANOIACDROMBUS option to define -d in case of using IDE and SCSI
in case of using ide-scsi emulation layer (Closes: #290768).
* Define metaflac in abcde.conf (Closes: #303555)

Set NORMALIZE to "normalize" by default, to match what is installed by
pkgsrc/audio/normalize. This fixes part of PR pkg/29755.
This release brings various bugfixes and small features. Check the
included changelog for details.
Changes:
* New "-t <number>" option for starting the numbering of the output files at a
given starting number. Ideal for albums with more than one CD.
* New "-T <number>" option, similar to "-t" but also modifies the tag entries
on the files themselves.
* New "-w <COMMENT>" to add a comment to the tracks of a given CD rip. Use
quotes.
* New "-W <number>" option to combine both a comment with "CD #number" and a
starting number for both the tracks and the tags with "#01" (that is, 101 for
the 1st CD, 201 for the second...)
* Support for keeping an existing playlist (and not add new entries to it),
erase the existing one (overwrite) or append new entries to the existing
one.
* New mungegenre function to switch off (or modify) the default behaviour of
transforming uppercase characters to lowercase.
* cdparanoia permits performing a query to the CD drive and obtain a list of
valid audio tracks. So, now we perform such query and process the results.
* Support for "None of the above" has been added with the "0" selection. A
template is created, and the selection to edit it is defaulted to "y".
* Portability fixes for OS X and OpenBSD
* EDITOR can take a full path and arguments
* The "-V" flag (extra verbosity) was added
* Miscellaneous bugfixes
Also, remove patch-ad, as it was buggy and unnecessary. This part closes
PR pkg/24401.
abcde 2.1.4:
* Small bug fixes:
+ COMMENT should work now.
+ Aesthetic padding on the total amount of tracks.
+ CDROM typo
+ CDROM is now checked after reading the user defined entries.
* Remove trailing args from $EDITOR when checking -x: Closes#179222.
abcde 2.1.3
* Makefile was missing cddb-tool.1.
* Introduced dagrab as CD ripping utility.
* cddb-tool seq calls converted to functions. No more distro dependencies.
* WGET* variables converted to HTTPGET* variables. FreeBSD can safelly use
fetch.
* More FreeBSD specific bits: CDROM and EJECT changes.
* Typo in abcde.conf
* Added CDDBPROTO for specifying the protocol level of the cddb query.
* CDDB protocol upgraded to 5. CDYEAR and CDGENRE are now used for CD
tagging.
* COMMENT is now used for inline tagging with oggenc (my mistake it was
missing): Closes: #191475.
abcde 2.1.2
* Documentation updates: Closes: #186230.
* Usual set of bug fixes and corrections.
* Default behaviour of VAOUTPUTFORMAT output changed to avoid multiple
directories for a same album. I think the format is more logical, and you
can always split the files once they are created.
* Padding track wavs with 0 so if you want to burn those wavs just cdrecord
*.wav will do it. Use "-p" to force it when encoding a small (<9) number
of files (Closes: #111627).
* Added "KEEPWAVS" as a variable to keep those wavs. Default is "no". Can
use also "-k" in the command line. (Closes: #160372).
This probably should be changed with an option to move the wav files to
another directory instead of just keep de abcde.<cdid> directory.
* Added documentation comments about OUTPUTTYPE (Closes: #184963).
* abcde.conf cleanup: (Closes: #186230, #187400).
abcde 2.1.0-3
* Since abcde does not depend on eject, an execution test ([-x]) was added,
but that means abcde needs a test for eject in the patch if -x is passed:
Closes: #184151.
* Merged some more bits from Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt: Closes: #126289.
* A bit of more info in abcde.conf: Closes: #184963.
* cddb-tool version updated to 0.4.2
abcde 2.1.0-2
* Old version string left behind. Updated.
* Few more doc update bits.
* Patches from Marc 'HE' Brockschmidt: Closes: #149499.
* Small patch from Norbert Preining to support multiple output in the output
directory.
* cddb-tool parses CDYEAR with the help of awk: Closes: #114848.
* cddb-tool does not globe "*" characters anymore: Closes: #157448.
abcde 2.1.0
* The infamous "Works for me(TM)" and "Time to release" release.
+ We preppend track number now: Closes: #128966.
+ Itegrate flac: Closes: #126311.
+ Multi-format encode: Closes: #148934.
+ Gapless lame encoding: Closes: #172696.
+ CDROM documented: Closes: #182403.
* Applied OpenBSD patches to make the script more portable. Thanks to Han
Boetes.
* Documentation fixes: closes: #100844, #136741.
* NetBSD patches applied:
- EXPERIMENTAL Normalize and Batch support.
- EXPERIMENTAL FLAC support.
* EXPERIMENTAL multiple output support:
+ multiple output and error checking
+ multiple lists support
* Default output file changed to have the $track_number in the begining.
* abcde takeover.
http://www.bagu.dhs.org/abcde-2.0.3-flac-patch
but with some serious improvements by me (including documentation
updates, and in-line addition of vorbis comments with flac -T ...).
Bump PKGREVISION.
- use ${PKG_SYSCONFBASE} instead of hardcoded /usr/pkg/etc
- keep the ID3v2 default as distributed, and depend on audio/id3v2
- don't depend on vorbis-tools: just inform the user about the need
to install at least one of the supported encoders
- sample config only has commented out entries, so install it only
in the examples directory
