Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sound-juicer

The Sound Juicer package in Karmic is built against the package
libmusicbrainz4 instead of libmusicbrainz3. This is bad since the
package libmusicbrainz4 includes the deprecated version 2.1.5 of
libmusicbrainz, while the package libmusicbrainz3 includes the current
version 3.0.2 (could somebody explain to me why the older package is
called libmusicbrainz4?)

This should be changed. libmusicbrainz version 2.x uses the old,
deprecated, RDF based MusicBrainz web service, while version 3.x uses
the newer XML based REST web service. This is especially bad since the
RDF web service will be removed with the next MusicBrainz server update,
which will happen this year.

FYI: The package in Jaunty used the newer web service.
