sound juicer making corrupt flac files

[sam tygier]

With several CDs sound juicer is producing flac files with corrupt metadata. The files will play in rhythmbox, but do not have any metadata. (Sound juicer is picking up the metadata, as it names the files correctly).

The test mode in the flac command shows a range of errors.

$ flac --test *.flac

Downgrading to an older sound juicer sound-juicer_3.20.0-1_amd64.deb makes no difference.
