+Vorbisgain comes in two version;
+- The main source: https://sjeng.org/ftp/vorbis/
+- The Debian version: http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/v/vorbisgain/
+
+The catch is... Debian has 10 patches:
+- 0001-temp_files.patch
+- 0002-errno.patch
+- 0003-manpage.patch
+- 0004-vorbisgain_mtime.patch
+- 0005-double_fclose.patch
+- 0006-manpage_hyphens.patch
+- 0007-recursively_spelling.patch
+- 0008-manpage_recursion_mistake.patch
+- 0009-hardening.patch
+- 0010-fclose.patch
+
+Of particular concern are 0005, 0009 and 0010 which might have implications for memory-leaks and string inputs.

+Lots of distributions don't include these patches as well, but I prefer to stick with the tried and tested package from Debian.
