soundconverter replaces spaces with %20's when set to output to the same location as input file

[Alan Jenkins]

Binary package hint: soundconverter

soundconverter 0.9.4-0ubuntu1 outputs spaces in folder names as %20's instead of actual spaces when it is set to output converted files to the same folder as the input file.

So for example if you convert /media/music/Coldplay/X & Y/Coldplay - X&Y [Special Edition] - 01 - Square One.mp3 to a OGG file with the preferences set to Place results in the same folder as the input
file it will actually output the results to /media/music/Coldplay/X%20%26%20Y.

This was reported in Debian a little while ago, and I have a fix, but I apparently forgot to upload it to Ubuntu :(

[William Grant (wgrant)]

Fixed in 0.9.6-0ubuntu1.

Will we get the uploading of soundconverter soon to remove this bugg or will we have to wait for the next Ubuntu uploading?

[William Grant (wgrant)]

It's fixed in the development release of Ubuntu.

Is there a way to get the fixed version installed in feisty?

This is a very annoying bug, good to know it's been fixed. Do you know when it'll be available in the distro updates? It also replaces special characters like "ö" with similar codes.
