k3b should suggest libk3b2-mp3 for .mp3s

[Uqbar]

k3b does not display a helpfull message explaining that you need to install libk3b2-mp3 which is in universe to be able to create audio cds from mp3 files

[Uqbar (uqbar)]

It's nice to see that none has been assigned to this yet.
Is there any workaround but the one to manually convert the MP3s to WAVs?

[Kenny Duffus (kduffus)]

Do you have libk3b2-mp3 installed?

It's hard to say.
I've never asked to install or uninstall it manually.
I asked to install the K3B,

What I can say is that:

root@enzo:/home/enzo# find / -name \*libk3b2\*
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libk3b2.list
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libk3b2.postinst
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libk3b2.md5sums
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libk3b2.postrm
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libk3b2.shlibs
/usr/share/doc/libk3b2

So there seems to be no shared library with that name.

Sorry fr the delay.
I've asked the package system to explicitly install the libk3b2.
Now the K3B works.
What I'd say is that in somewahy the libk3b2 should be automatically installed
with k3b.

Many thanks for the help.

unfortunatly as libk3b2-mp3 is in universe it can't be installed by default

The point is that there was no hint about this "lack" and how to solve it!
