@intuited - You're doing the right thing. Just type 'y' rather than 'q'. It needs to remove those two packages, but will install alternate packages which satisfy all the necessary dependencies.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/296922 Title: Unknown encoder mp3 error in ffmpeg (ibex) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ffmpeg/+bug/296922/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
