Well, technically, the asking is easy :-)

But as you say, actually getting it in
is not easy (the same thing has
happened with some other packages
where RH distributed only part of the
package with EL8).

Which is why I would think that the
entire Requires: lame should be
entirely removed.

While I have no doubt someone has
written some external script that uses
the lame binary, that does not make
it a responsibility of the package to
install it (and if it is already installed,
it will (probably) get updated by the
user during the normal course of
events).

If someone really believes it should
remain in the spec, at least downgrade
it to a Suggests (or Recommends) for
EL8(+) and Fedora.
