@Harald Sitter: Of course, you are right concerning the MP3 patents. But as far as I know, libxine1-ffmpeg is not what installs MP3 support, but only a plugin for xine to use ffmpeg (and therefore free software which is in the main repo).
If libxine1-ffmpeg is not installed, Amarok is not able to play MP3 even if you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, from what the user expects to make MP3 work - an unexperienced user would never get the idea of installing libxine1-ffmpeg. Is there any reason not to recommend libxine1-ffmpeg in the Amarok package? -- amarok 2 not play mp3's in default installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/320901 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
