The tool you're looking for is faad (apt-get install faad should do the
trick).  I don't have any of my old scripts handy, or I'd give you a
sample command line.  The defaults work for the most part, but you have
to get the arguments right in order to set the wrapper metadata properly
- I've yet to find a tool that will edit AAC metadata properly after the
fact.
