Public bug reported:

Please sync easytag 2.1.10-1 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)

I am following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess and
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess but have not been through
the process before.

Justification for Feature Freeze Exception:

trusty has 2.1.8-1, which has several major bugs that are fixed in
2.1.10-1. There are some new features, but (as the upstream developer of
EasyTAG) I feel that the crash and stability fixes are very important,
and should reach Ubuntu LTS users despite the feature freeze.

Ubuntu bugs which are fixed by the update include: bug 478571, bug 509645, bug 
532168, bug 538490, bug 642556, bug 959492, bug 1173805.
Debian bugs which are fixed by the update are included in the Debian changelog, 
and include:
https://bugs.debian.org/500051
https://bugs.debian.org/518955
https://bugs.debian.org/560813
https://bugs.debian.org/691687
https://bugs.debian.org/727811

I have tested EasyTAG in trusty, and all features seem to work fine, I
can at least read and write tags for the supported file formats.
