The audio cd commandline ripper abcde has had some heavy development recently and abcde version 2.7.1 was released on October 4th 2015. Tarball and signature respectively can be found here:

The changelog can be viewed here with all of the development history.

Any bugs, suggestions, enhancements, patches can be posted on this thread or on the abcde bugzilla. As one of the abcde developers I would be more than happy to facilitate any proposed patches against the abcde source!

And now the release of abcde 2.7.2:

Code:

abcde 2.7.2

  * When using musicbrainz, don't assume that there will be release
    events attached to a particular CD release. Bug fix for the addition
    of year information support in 2.7.1. Thanks to Ed Oehler and Alan W.
    Kerr for debugging help.
  * Support for output to the Matroska container (mka). Encoder
    is FFmpeg (or avconv). Typical conf file syntax would be:

     MKAENCODERSYNTAX=ffmpeg
     FFMPEG=ffmpeg
     FFMPEGENCOPTS="-c:a ac3 -b:a 448k"
     OUTPUTTYPE="mka"

    Thanks to Shantiq and Fakeoutdoorsman of the Ubuntu Forums
    for the idea.
  * Add id3tag mp3 tagger as this is the tagger available to
    OpenBSD users. Thanks to Christopher Zimmermann for the
    notification and patch.
  * Allow for cddb response 500. Thanks again to Von Welch for the
    bug report and patch. This closes Issue 26:
    http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26
  * Fix for 'expansion of $REDIR' bug on MacOSX. Thanks to Von Welch
    for the bug report. This closes Issue 22:
    http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22
  * Makefile adjusted to allow the sample abcde.conf file to be
    installed by default to /etc rather than $(prefix)/etc.
    Thanks to Volker Schmidt from archlinux for the bug report:
    https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/46671
  * Allow getalbumart to correctly place cover image when single
    track is selected. Thanks to Nino Burini for the bug report
    and also the fix. This closes Issue 25:
    http://abcde.einval.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25

which may be the last release for some time as abcde seems to be working very, very nicely as it is...
