Comment(by anonymous):

 latest version (labeled 2ndAug2008) includes these new features:

   * much more meaningful output for users, including more "comment" fields
   * taglib now compiles and install properly
   * changed a number of libraries to test that the "make install"
 succeeded, rahter that just that a Makefile exits (ie the configure
 succeeded).
   * install a couple of troublesome libraries to both /usr and /mingw
   * libcdaudio is now downloaded and compiled (including custom patch for
 win32).
   * changed a partial qt3 build from failing as easily, by re-trying to
 mingw32-make
   * removed "pauses" that typical users don't want.
   * added alpha code to allow swithcing between SVN branches and trunk
 automatically, so that the script can theoretically build both trunk, and
 0.21-branches without having to re-download all the SVN.  (not 100
 reliable yet, but improving).
   * extended the make_clean.sh script that is used in addition to a 'make
 clean', (which is inadequate on win32 at present)  to cleanup .exe, .dll,
 .a, .o files.

 Thanks!
 Buzz.
