>Description:
FLAC apparently was originally created as an independant encoder, but
is now included in Ogg as a variant encoding option.  I thought that
it would be nice to make ogg-flac encodings, but cannot do that.  When
I try, I get an error at the encoding phase (I add "--ogg" to the
FLAC encoder options; the abcde encoding knows that I'm using FLAC
and apparently doesn't know how to attach ancillary data to an
ogg-flac file).

>How-To-Repeat:
Try to rip a CD with abcde and telling abcde to use FLAC with a
--ogg encoding.

Relavent info may include:

 * abcde-2.1.19nb1
 * flac-1.1.1nb1
>Fix:
Not sure.

As a work-around, I just dropped the --ogg option, since I don't really
need it.

Presumably the tools that do the tagging will eventually handle this
correctly, but for now I presume that the problem is one of using the
wrong tool for tagging the files.
