Wonderful! I followed your instructions and it installed perfectly under
Ubuntu 10.04! I installed the six dependencies and ran the installer
script as root. (I used Synaptic to install the dependencies instead of
a command line.) I didn't test -puddletag- fully. I didn't try to write
tags 'cause my NTFS partition was mounted read-only. Your software
shows a lot of hard work. Thanks!

I'm using custom tags and puddletag shows their existence but their
values are incorrect. Not trying to file a bug report, here. I've been
struggling with my tagging effort which is overly obsessive. I'm
rethinking my entire project.

I notice your comment about some character sets causing problems. I
encountered this writing Windows batch scripts. I never found a
solution (yeah, batch language is pretty archaic) but I worked around
it. I'm attempting to preserve correct spellings (Slavic, Cyrillic,
etc) without resorting to Anglicizing them. I'm about ready to throw in
the towel on that idea.

You summarized my situation perfectly as you described keeping a
Windows partition solely for the sake of running -mp3tag.- I never
tried mp3tag under WINE, but I've used WINE for text editors . I think
I will uninstall WINE -- it is a stain on my Linux system. The XP
partition will probably stick around a while longer.

I stumbled across a neat Linux music player called 'DeaDBeef'
(http://deadbeef.sourceforge.net/) last week. It is similar to Windows'
Foobar2000. I like 'em as simple as possible sometimes.

Anyway, thank you for your program and keep up the great work!
