... 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

No support for Regex, the real power of FRB. Other stuff missing too.
