** Description changed: Binary package hint: rhythmbox Numerous bug reports have been submitted about Rhythmbox's handling of ID3 tags, so it is clear that its ID3 support is (yet) less than perfect. I still like RB as a player, though. To avoid it corrupting my tags, I therefore removed write access from my MP3 files. However, it is still possible to edit a file's tag in RB, and it even turns write permission back on. Steps to reproduce: - 1. Give an MP3 file only write permissions (444). + 1. Give an MP3 file only read permissions (444). 2. Locate the file in RB's music library, and edit its ID3 tag info. Expected result: - Rhythmbox should give an error message saying it does not have permission to edit the file. - File should be unchanged. Actual result: - ID3 tags are changed (and, I might add, somewhat corrupted). - MP3 file gets write permission (644). If this functionality is intentional, this can be considered an enhancement request instead of a bug. In my opinion, applications should generally respect file permissions. I am using Rhythmbox 0.11.2 on an up-to-date Gutsy Installation.
