    K3B and MP3

    I am having trouble getting K3B to rip to mp3 format. I have the Ubuntu Restricted Extras. I also ran
    Code:
    sudo apt-get -y install k3b libk3b2-extracodecs
    But it says "Couldn't find package libk3b2-extracodecs".

    In K3B if I go under Pluggins>external Encoders there is nothing there, but I am pretty sure I do have LAME. So how do i get K3B to play nice? Audacity can encode to mp3....

    Thanks

    Its libk3b6-extracodecs.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    No response to the clean all. Updated without a prob. The third command give this:

    Code:
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree       
    Reading state information... Done
    E: Couldn't find package liblame0

    liblame0 is available in sources. Which version of Ubuntu are you using?

    Karmic 9.10.

    If by sources you mean the selectable sources in the Ubuntu Software Center, I have Main, Restricted, universe, and Multiverse ticked. But searching for liblame0 has no results.

    I can rip songs to MP3 via Audacity, but that is a horribly slow/painfull/LONG way to do it. But I do have MP3 support that K3B isn't seeing.
