abcde works fine for multi track CDs. If they are not in the database,
I need to provide the disc information manually.

Now I have a single track CD where abcde consistently (even after
ejecting the CD multiple times and rebooting) reports:

Executing customizable pre-read function... done.
Getting CD track info... Insufficient or missing discinfo data.
[ERROR] abcde: abcde-musicbrainz-tool failed to run; ABORT

If I use a different tool, e.g. goobox, I need to manually provide the
disc information but otherwise the track is extracted just fine.

So obviously if abcde cannto determine the discinfo it should just ask
for it even in the single track case.

Hi -

I ran into this same problem myself yesterday -

I diagnosed and fixed the problem.  See

I located a bug report for this in the abcde Bugzilla -
https://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=100

I added a comment there.

Dear Maintainer,

the bug is still present, six years after it has been reported and a
patch with the fix provided.

Granted, changing locally the perl script is trivial, there is no need,
for example, to recompile the application.

As far as I see, the last commit in abcde has been made in 2021, so for
the foreseeable future, there will be no new release upstream.

Would it make sense to incorporate the patch in Debian by default?
