[paranoia] [Bug report] not possible to use cdparanoia with grip

[Phil Humpherys]

>From the README in the source distribution:

To build with cdparanoia:

 o if you downloaded the grip source distribution *with* cdparanoia
    included, you are set. if not:

     o get the cdparanoia source distribution
     o unpack it somewhere
     o make a symbolic link "cdparanoia" in the grip source
     directory that
     points to it (ie: ln -s
     /usr/src/cdparanoia-III-alpha9.5 cdparanoia)

     o cd to the cdparanoia directory
     o configure it ("./configure")
     o do "make lib"
     o cd back up to the grip directory
     o type "make" and then "make install"
