@ed:
thanx! now it workes, I got even the CVS-version compiled. Good that the
id3 things will get removed, I got these error messages and found the
stuff in tag.h in the id3v2 folder that came with the sources-
so its not easy to see at once that you have to get the id3lib-stuff
separatly:-)

@bob:
you have to get the newest version of id3lib from
http://id3lib.sourceforge.net
and compile it the same way as musicbrainz...
then you compile zinf 2.2.3 WITHOUT changing anything in the sources :-)
for me it worked than on RedHat 8.0.

have fun,
georg
