** Tags added: patch ** Description changed:
Binary package hint: sound-juicer The Sound Juicer package in Karmic and Lucid 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. + This means sound-juicer is currently unusable in Lucid LTS. + libmusicbrainz version 2.x uses the old, no longer existing, RDF based + MusicBrainz web service, while version 3.x uses the newer XML based REST + web service. FYI: The package in Jaunty used the newer web service. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/455461 Title: Sound Juicer depends on deprecated libmusicbrainz4 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
