OK, how is musicbrainz supposed to work in 2.9.3???  the same problem 
existed in 2.9.1 but not in 2.8.1.  So when was this changed and what 
was the change supposed to do?


line 2690 is:
${MUSICBRAINZ} --command data --discid "${MBDISCID}" --workdir 
"${SOURCE_WORKDIR}" --start ${NUM_CDDB_MATCHES}

${MUSICBRAINZ} resolves to abcde-musicbrainz-tool and the problem is the 
"--start" switch (because it doesn't exist in abcde-musicbrainz-tool).

the error is:
=====
Unknown option: start
Usage:
      abcde-musicbrainz-tool [options]

      Options:
        --command {id|data|calcid} mode of operation (default: id)
        --device <DEV>             read from CD-ROM device DEV (default: 
/dev/cdrom)
        --discid <ID>              Disc ID to query with --command data.
        --discinfo <F> <L> <LI> <LO> <TRK1OFF> [<TRK2OFF> [...]]
                                   Disc information for --command calcid.
        --workdir <DIR>            working directory (default: /tmp)
        --help                     print option summary
        --man                      full documentation

[ERROR] abcde: abcde-musicbrainz-tool failed to run; ABORT
=====

so, there's no --start switch... *HOW* has anyone gotten this to run???
HOW has no one else noticed this???
