I've just gone for the 7.0 install, and I'm very happy with it except
for artist sorting.

Some time ago I raised bug 5296 to support MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME. The
small suggested fix worked OK for me (in 6.5) and I thought this had
been added to 7.0.

Unfortunately 7.0 is much worse for sorting for me than 6.5 ever was.
My library is all FLAC and most of my tracks have MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME
and ARTISTSORT (because I previously had to copy the former to the
later to get the proper sorting functionality).

In 7.0 now (I upgraded last week), almost all of my artists are sorting
incorrectly - they seem to be ignoring both the above tags and just
using ARTIST. Interestingly, I found just one or two artists that are
sorted correctly, and those only contain ARTISTSORT (no MUSICBRAINZ
tags).

So, it seems that the presence of the MUSICBRAINZ_SORTNAME tag causes
both it and the ARTISTSORT tag to be ignored.

Is it possible something went awry in my install?

I'm running on Linux - FC 5.
