[Python-apps-team] Bug#852241: beets fails to move album when modifying artist

[St. Schade]

Hi,

FWIW responding here 2 years later.

I believe this is not a bug. You have to use the -a switch to change the album instead
of the tracks. Furthermore, you have to change the field albumartist instead of artist.

I did the same mistake and documented it here.

I suggest that this bug will be closed, but I leave this decision to the maintainer of the package.
