And what about libmad as the instructions suggested? Is it installed?
You will likely need: lib64mad0


Note, that lame shouldn't be important here, nor should a tainted build
of k3b be 100% required AFAIK. k3b is trying to *decode* mp3, not
*encode* it and as far as I understand we've never had a problem
including mp3 decoders in regular repositories - it's just the encoders
we have an issue with (assuming my understanding correct of course!)
