Unfortunately development stopped and it's not shipping in some linux distros anymore. Great tool.
try KrojamSoft BatchRename program it is user friendly easy to use.
... or just install pyRenamer. Still doable under debian-latest a.k.a buster with little effort (tested on MX Linux 19):
$ wget http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pyrenamer/pyrenamer_0.6.0-1.2_all.deb
$ wget http://ftp.br.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gnome-python/python-gconf_2.28.1+dfsg-1.2_amd64.deb
$ sudo apt-get install python-hachoir-metadata
$ sudo dpkg -i python-gconf_2.28.1+dfsg-1.2_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i pyrenamer_0.6.0-1.2_all.deb
Does the job I was looking for under Linux.
No support for Regex, the real power of FRB. Other stuff missing too.
