[Abcde-users] Embedded metadata for full-album rips

Hello,

I am trying abcde to rip some cds as full-album flacs with the command
like:
abcde -1 -o flac -a default,cue

But I am confused by the VORBIS_COMMENT that is embedded in the FLAC. It
puts in the Title and Number of the first track only, and also
"TRACKTOTAL=01". Shouldn't these be omitted for full-album rips?

The correct artist and title details are in the external CUE, but these
incomplete/incorrect details in the internal comment appear to cause issue
with some players such as VLC.

METADATA block #2
  type: 4 (VORBIS_COMMENT)
  is last: false
  length: 169
  vendor string: reference libFLAC 1.3.2 20170101

    comment[5]: TRACKTOTAL=01
