Normalize and WaveGain no longer in Ubuntu repos

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Ubuntu no longer supports normalize or wavegain, instead they have a 
(relatively) new package called "normalize-audio" which contains three 
commands: normalize-audio, which normalizes waves; normalize-ogg, which 
normalizes oggs; and normalize-mp3, which normalizes mp3s. You might perhaps 
look into support for those at some point.

Err - the New issue form doesn't let me set the type or priority. This should 
be an enhancement and low priority.

this isn't all that new, Debian changed the name some time ago. for the moment 
users can just link as they see fit 
Ex.
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/normalize-audio /usr/local/bin/normalize

For the moment, yes, but for the long run, adding support for the "new" 
commands is a feature to consider. That why I mentioned it - not "for the 
moment," but for later.

"New" package? normalize-audio is available since (at least) Ubuntu Hardy 8.04, 
so it's there for more than 4 years. Last upstream version is from 2005

Fixed with commit:

Based on the comments here I just replace the binary name, I expect the 
arguments to be the same.
