The most important plugin that I'm missing is the replaygain plugin, and I've got it working on my system now. There are multiple replaygain backends, and I wanted the bs1770gain backend, so I created a package for that. I started to make some related changes in the beets package too, but I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble. If a user (1) installs bs1770gain into their profile, and (2) edits their config file to use that backend, then the replaygain plugin works fine. The nix package does a lot of patching to make both of those step unnecessary, but it seems like overkill to me. The 'convert' plugin is similar in that it doesn't work OOTB, but it can be fixed by the user without modifying beets (just install ffmeg or configure it to use other commands for conversion).

Nice! Sounds good to me. -- Alex Griffin
