I'm obviously not well versed on the history of previous attempts to merge, etc. but when I got this latest release and went to enter/edit it I had know idea what to do.

that one is weird, because it's an album released as Cat Stevens, now being marketed under both names. That might be an artist alias for me.

I tried to describe the situation to my wife and she said I think you need a 3rd artist for his new "identity/project".

It is actually a totally new album of new recordings. So only released under Yusuf / Cat Stevens.

in my opinion, his new identity is his two projects working together, but I can also see her view.

new recordings of old songs, for copyright $ probably?

one of the weirder releases in mb now, actually. most edge-case-y

They have a totally new feel so I don't think it is copyright. Simply revisiting/interpreting as Sting has done.

there's also Yusuf vs. Yusuf Islam, which to me Yusuf is an artist alias of Yusuf Islam..

Can you imagine interviewing him to try to determine artist intent. Wow.

what was the musicbrainz ticket change that was hypothesized to be logging me out far more frequently when using importers?
i had it only happen when i was not active on MB before
2020-10-04 27822, 2020
SothoTalKer
so i just open MB anyway, then i can use whatever importer there is

Hello guys, first time writing a Picard plugin and so I feel a bit clueless.
2020-10-04 27850, 2020
diggy
Are third-party imports allowed? The only plugin I came across in the repo that used third-party imports was the BPM analyzer and it claims to be Linux-only. So is the limitation due to my device running on Windows and is there any (clumsy or not) way to get around the limitations?

diggy: It won't work on Windows or macOS because on those systems Picard gets packaged up with it's own Python, and this does only include modules that are actually needed. On Linux or alike this is not an issue, because the system provided Python is being used
2020-10-04 27850, 2020

You have multiple options: If it is only for your personal use you could run Picard from source with a system isntalled Python
2020-10-04 27806, 2020
outsidecontext
Or you can include the necessary module in your plugin
2020-10-04 27823, 2020
outsidecontext
which only works well if your plugin does not rely on additional C libs
Thanks for the help. I'll try with the second option first but one of the modules is a Cython wrapper so let's see how it goes. Would probably have to go with the first option if there's no choice.
