Hello,

I essentially sent the following to slackbuilds-users@slackbuilds.org,
but it got rejected from zen.spamhaus.org so I'm posting it here in
hopes someone can help.

abcde is a program that rips, fetches tags, and produces .ogg and
other encoded music. I successully built and installed abcde and lame
from slackbuild. I successfully ripped and produced .ogg files from a
CD. But I wanted to insert my music into an ipod and I needed mp3
files. When I entered

abcde -o mp3

I got the following message:

which: no id3v2 in (/usr/local/sbin ....)

I had installed id3lib from slackbuild, and could not find the
standalone program id3v2 in the Slackware 12 distribution or on
slackbuilds.org. I downloaded the source from sourceforge, but it
wouldn't compile. I looked in the Debian distribution, and they seem
to have that program, but I'd rather stay within the official
distribution and slackbuilds.

I have a script written many years ago using cdparanoia and lame, to
rip and encode into mp3 files. If I had a program to fetch the tags
(title, artist, etc) from the internet I wouldn't need abcde. Does
anyone know of such a package, preferably with within slackware
world.

Thanks in advance
