I just realised now that it was uniinstalled / removed as part of an
apt-get dist-upgrade that I did several weeks ago.

Anyway, I wanted to listen to:

http://www.abc.net.au/classic/audio/
http://www.abc.net.au/classic/audio/streaming.htm

via their mp3 stream, but without the extras-nonfree package, amarok
is not able to play mp3. Even if there is an mp3 decoder, is there an
audio streaming client in kde-redhat ?

My kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree comes from livna:
$ rpm -q kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree
kdemultimedia-extras-nonfree-3.5.6-5.lvn6

HTH,

Interesting. Although none of the kde apps could play mp3, it seems
that simply running firefox and clicking on that mp3 stream from the
abc.net.au site actually works!!

Anyway, I'll still install that package. I must have commented the
livna repo then.
Thanks.

amarok's nonfree codec support doesn't come from kdemm-extras-nonfree
(which is in livna, btw), but from
amarok-extras-nonfree
(which essentially pulls in xine-lib-extras-nonfree).

Convoluted enough yet? :)
