Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I'm on Maverick and don't have the Canonical Partners repository
enabled. When opening the Ubuntu One music store within Rhythmbox, it
asks me to install MP3 plugins. This does not work since gstreamer0.10
-fluendo-plugins-mp3-partner obviously is not available, but the error
message I get is:

    "There was a problem installing, sorry
    Check your internet connection and try again."

There is nothing wrong with my internet connection, and opening
Rhythmbox in debug mode shows that the package could not be found
indeed:

    (01:38:31) [0x8226e68] [U1Source._on_error]
    /usr/lib/rhythmbox/plugins/umusicstore/__init__.py:818:
    Could not find the gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins-mp3-partner package.

The user-visible error message could be made more useful, by basing it
on the debug message U1Source._on_error receives.

(In this case, it might be even better to require gstreamer0.10-fluendo-
mp3 from universe, which also fixes the problem, but I don't know
whether there are good reasons not to.)
