last.fm plugin does not work if gmusicbrowser is started with '&' #238

i've the same problem as mentioned in #211.

on the terminal the message Error fetching http://post.audioscrobbler.com/... is printed on every try of gmusicbrowser talking with the scrobbler.

a password change (as in #211) did not help.

the only thing that did help was: running gmusicbrowser instead of gmusicbrowser &

by debugging the problem i found, that $self->{ebuffer} in https://github.com/squentin/gmusicbrowser/blob/73089de1a70f537dc790056a50802617ab0a1725/simple_http_wget.pm#L86 contains the unexpected string Redirecting output to â. instead of some http header. so this member variable is filled with wrong content somewhere.

i did not dig further into it.
