Bug#673284: morituri: support releases with multiple mediums

[Marc Dequènes (Duck)]

Package: morituri
Version: 0.1.2-2


Coin,

Ripping releases with multiple medium is broken, see:
   http://thomas.apestaart.org/morituri/trac/ticket/67

As this is not a rare situation and the main goal of this program, i  
do not consider this a wish but a bug (thus the severity).

Unfortunately, the next version is probably not coming soon. This bug  
was closed 4 months ago, not so much activity recently, and there is  
still much to do:
   http://thomas.apestaart.org/morituri/trac/query?group=status&milestone=0.1.3

Moreover, there is no way to properly solve the situation using  
python-musicbrainz2 because the new MusicBrainZ's API is necessary to  
compute which tracks are in the selected medium.

I made a patch to work around this problem. For the first and last  
medium the track offset can be guessed, and in all other cases the  
user is asked to manually enter the track offset. I'm not a Python  
developper, so my patch is probably not the most beautiful ever, but  
it seems to work nicely.

I think applying this patch would be nice for Wheezy, because the next  
version will clearly not be ready for it. When the next version is  
released, this patch would be obsolete and you'd just have to remove  
it, so there should be no maintenance work.

Regards.
