Unfortunately development stopped and it's not shipping in some linux distros anymore. Great tool.

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

... 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
