Debian changelog in Git:

id3lib3.8.3 (3.8.3-25) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * Add ID3v2.4 read support. id3lib shipped the ID3v2.4 enum values and a
    spec-info row but never wired them up, so v2.4 tags were silently dropped.
    Closes: #309278.
    - 73-id3v2_4-parse-frame-sizes.patch: accept ID3v2.4 in ID3_Header::SetSpec
      (it was rejected as > ID3V2_LATEST, leaving _info NULL); treat fields
      that run to LATEST as valid for v2.4 in ID3_Field::InScope (otherwise all
      fields are skipped, leaving text empty and the frame body unconsumed);
      read the frame size as a 28-bit synchsafe integer and translate the v2.4
      frame flag bits. ID3V2_LATEST stays at 2.3.0, so newly written tags are
      unchanged; this only widens what can be read. Re: #449186.
    - 74-id3v2_4-register-frames.patch: add the v2.4 text frames (TDEN, TDOR,
      TDRC, TDRL, TDTG, TIPL, TMCL, TMOO, TPRO, TSST) to the frame table.
    - 75-add-sortorder-frames.patch: add the v2.4 sort-order frames TSOA, TSOP
      and TSOT.
    - 76-id3v2_4-frame-unsync-datalen.patch: act on the two v2.4-only frame
      format flags: reverse per-frame unsynchronisation (via UnsyncedReader)
      and skip the data length indicator, consuming the grouping, encryption
      and data length fields in the order the spec mandates. Real-world taggers
      rarely set them; combining them with frame compression is left to the
      v2.3-style path.
  * 70-warn-on-unsupported-id3v2-version.patch: now that v2.4 is read, limit
    the opt-in notice to genuinely unknown versions (ID3V2_UNKNOWN).
  * debian/rules: call aclocal with -I m4 (as required by ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in
    Makefile.am). Without it the bundled ID3_UNICODE macro was dropped, the
    ID3_ICONV_FORMAT_* defines were never set and iconv text conversion
    silently fell back, so e.g. UTF-8 text was returned empty.
  * 77-fix-id3lib-m4-macros.patch: with aclocal -I m4 the bundled macros are
    now applied; fix two of them. ID3_CXX_PORTABILITY tested for-loop scoping
    by including the long-gone <iostream.h>, so the test always failed to
    compile and wrongly defined CXX_HAS_BUGGY_FOR_LOOPS, enabling the
    "#define for if(1) for" workaround that triggered -Wdangling-else across
    every standard header. Also quote the underquoted ID3_CHECK_ICONV_FORMAT.
  * debian/rules: configure with --disable-cxx-warnings. id3lib's own -Wall
    block was inert before -24 enabled aclocal -I m4 and only exposes
    pre-existing upstream warnings; this restores the warning-free build.
  * debian/tests/roundtrip.cpp: add an ID3v2.4 read check (a hand-built v2.4
    tag with a >127-byte frame followed by another frame) to guard the new
    synchsafe frame-size parsing against regressions.
  * d/control: Removed Rules-Requires-Root: no (default is: no).
