Comment 7 for bug 1220429

Dear Quentin

Subsequent to these reports distribution upgrades and/or bug infestations forcing reinstallation led me to lose my gmb application data.

I'm looking frantically through backups but am facing the possibility that it is lost. Quodlibet stopped working altogether on Xubuntu 14.04. It seems to have installed Audacious. I will get gmb again and address these points you raised, if they are still relevant:

a) Will look.
b) This is the way to solve the problem, thank you. I did learn to do this (the hard way!).

3. I've no doubt you do. If only my own backups had been as reliable as gmb's. I've got two more places to look. Fingers crossed.

Regarding adding labels, it seemed to me at one point the best solution was to add additional information as tags. Quodlibet seemed to handle this fairly well at one point. tags e.g. for "key" or "pianist". But it simplified its interface and I lost the feature. I could also no be sure that my bespoke tags would ever be compatible with any other s/w. It seemed not.

I shall let you know if I have anything useful to say about labels. What you say sounds interesting.
