I try to import an album with flac files but:

beetsplug.replaygain.ReplayGainError: mp3gain exited with status 1

Why it tries to use mp3gain if they are flac files?

Thanks for reporting this!! I don't know why we didn't have a format check in 
there. That's embarrassing.

Should be all fixed as of 4116a8a97e4c. We won't even try to analyze files that 
aren't MP3 or AAC (depending which tool you have installed).
