Bug Description
Ubuntu Wily AMD64
easymp3gain-gt 0.5.0+svn135 amd64
This system was installed with 15.04 and updated to 15.10 after an uefi hard disk mess up.
Tried to used easymp3gain-gtk since many years with success to this program, installed it and tried out.
- Scan results to 'mp3gain tool is missing'
- So i did "apt-get install mp3gain' with result 'not found'
So i searched for the latest release and found it at 14.04 LTS. After install of this old version, easymp3gain-gtk is able to do his job.
mp3gain 1.5.2-r2-6 amd64
Suggestion:
Method-1: Eliminate all easymp3gain variants as they are useless without mp3gain
Method-2: Place mp3gain in the repos again to make all easymp3gain variants usable again

Keep in mind that easyMp3Gain can also be used with VorbisGain, which is still in the archive, so it is still useful to some people.
In any case, since easyMp3Gain is unmaintained upstream for years now, it is likely that it will be dropped some time in the future, when updating it downstream doesn't make sense anymore.
