The right path is to patch jack to use the current version of eyed3. I'm going to work soon on the patch, it should be feasible. Regards, Gaetano

Hello eyed3 maintainer(s), I am another user bitten by this bug. I can confirm that jack is completely unusable with python-eyed3/0.7.10-1, while it works correctly with python-eyed3/0.6.18-3 ... It seems to me that python-eyed3/0.7.x has a library interface which is definitely incompatible with previous versions. It would be highly useful, if some backward-compatible symbols/methods/classes could be implemented in python-eyed3. Is that possible? I am raising the severity of this bug, as it breaks jack, thus having a major effect on the usefulness of package python-eyed3. Please address this issue as soon as possible: please forward this bug report upstream and/or prepare a patch to fix it. Thanks for your time.

Package: python-eyed3 Version: 0.7.9-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, the debian package "jack" (it is a condole cd ripper) depends on python-eyed3, so much that it executes, as a consistency check, the statement from eyeD3 import eyeD3 at a very early stage of its initialization. Of course the new version (a) has changed the module's name and (b) has not a eyeD3 symbol in it. I've reported the problem in a bug report for the jack package (#844568) but I've receiveed no feedback.
