mp3 autoinstall is broken

[Chris]

I first tried to play an AAC file in Amarok and it told me to install the codec. This worked fine.
I restarted Amarok then tried to play an MP3 file. Again, it told me to install a codec, but the list of packages to be installed was empty. After the install of nothing, and restarting Amarok it still thought the codec was missing and wouldn't play the song.

Attempting to play the song in Dolphin caused a similar install of nothing.

I eventually got it working using these directions http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/MP3:Kubuntu#Manual_installation
sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

Hi there!

Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https://bugs.kde.org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.

Thanks!
