Troy, Thank you for looking into this. I noticed this while upgrading somebody else's desktop - it had SL4.4 with both k3b and k3b-mp3 installed, and the update to 4.8 went fine except for this small bump, which I got over by uninstalling k3b-mp3. Afterwards I tried to re-install k3b-mp3, naively trying to keep the system as close to original as possible. This issue is of no concern to me, nor would I expect the users to care even if some mp3-related functionality was lost. I don't even know how I would verify that there is no lost functionality. I barely even know what an mp3 is. :-) It seemed like a small problem with the distro, so I thought I'd ask.
I'm sorry I can't verify that the k3b-mp3 package is extraneous - I'll take your word for it. -Wayne Troy Dawson wrote: > *Troy scratches his head a bit and wonders* > That's odd.
