So far as i am aware amarok just uses phonon for playback (since 2.0) so if
you use phonon-backend-xine then it uses xine and if you use
phonon-backend-gstreamer it uses gstreamer and phonon-backend-vlc uses vlc.
Hence xine-lib-extras-freeworld should make no difference to amarok when
using the default backend anyway. You probably want gstreamer-plugins-* in
f15+ (or whenever phonon-backend-gstreamer became the default) unless you
changed the back end manually.
