I detected a minor bug in linux version (on ubuntu)
When you try to modify a file name using tags and the tag contains "/", Kid3 will prompt an error saying you don't have the right to write the file, whereas you have it. The prompt should be something like "file name can't contain a /"
Maybe an option should be added to allow user to select the character "/" should be transformed into in file names.

    Thanks for the report. What version of Kid3 are you using? I am asking because I am pretty sure that I have fixed this for version 3.7.0. If you try to rename a file to a name containing an illegal character (only / on Linux, more on Windows), it will be replaced by "-" or according to the file name replacements configuration. If you do not have the latest release, you could add my PPA as described on the Kid3 website.
    If you are using the latest version, please describe in details how to reproduce this.

    Thanks for answering. I didn't think I could not have latest version. I'm on 3.6.1. Then I will certainly add your PPA.
