[opensuse-factory] new package 'picard'
Hi, I'd like to submit the package 'picard' which contains MusicBrainz Picard, a music file tag editor. This package uses only free components (unlike other 'picard' packages) and adds some useful plugins. My question is which devel project is suited best for it. It's a python-qt4 based GPLv2 app that seems not to be packaged yet in the official repos. It can be found in the project 'home:saschpe' [1]. Footnotes: [1] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=picard&project=home%3Asaschp... -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com

That would be great ;) IMO it would fit into multimedia:apps. -- cu, Michael Andres +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Key fingerprint = 2DFA 5D73 18B1 E7EF A862 27AC 3FB8 9E3A 27C6 B0E4 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ Michael Andres YaST Development ma@novell.com SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) Maxfeldstrasse 5, D-90409 Nuernberg, Germany, ++49 (0)911 - 740 53-0 +------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

The reason that it was not in the official repos is that picard without ffmpeg is crippled (no audio fingerprinting, removes the main feature of the program). It is a better fit in packman.

I disagree, even though it won't have all the features without ffmpeg, it's still a very useful mass tagger. BTW. Fedora ships a similar version.
It is a better fit in packman.
There was an effort by MasterPatricko and me to get it in there, no success yet though. -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Thought so too, I made a submit request for that. -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I'm too busy to test picard atm, I use kid3 and pinkytagger, how does it compare to them? There isn't a gui tagger in the main distro or multimedia:apps at all only id3v2 a command line one. One fact in favour of contrib is it's listed as a community repo in yast and multimedia:apps isn't so it will be more visible in 11.3 in contrib.

This is somewhat biased but IMHO it's a lot easier to work with than pinkytagger, I don't know how it compares to kid3. The most striking feature is that you can update a whole lot of audio files in parallel and semi- automatic. To test this packaging effort, I let it update tags of my complete music folder (54GB of music). The advantage here is that user interaction mostly is about dragging the minority of audio files it wasn't able to sort into albums automatically onto those. Compared to what you have to do in pinkytagger it's a big win.
One fact in favour of contrib is it's listed as a community repo in yast and multimedia:apps isn't so it will be more visible in 11.3 in contrib. Yep, I also filed a submit request there but people seem busy right now... -- Sascha Peilicke http://saschpe.wordpress.com

Sounds similar to kid3 but not kde dependent. I was looking at the fedora link on the website about ffmpeg and using a fedora universe package to make it work and maybe a full featured version of the package would work in packman. You should definitely look at getting it into packman.

I'm a maintainer of multimedia:apps that's why I'm asking these questions. Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
