I found that on Fedora 10, by doing a search for yum packages called k3b-extra that there was a package named k3b-extras-freeworld. By installing it, I wasn’t able to install the rpm file specified, and k3b started up just fine without the rpm file.

Hi Tony, Yep you did the right thing as libk3b2-mp3 is not a yum package to install. But glad to hear the article assisted you with the problem and that you fixed it in the end.

Sir! installaion of libk3b2-mp3 through yum failed for me, but I was able to get this working by backtracking from the k3b-extras-nonfree-1* hint – MANY THANKS!

Using Fedora 8 and I am a kind of newbie to it. Install K3b burner today successfully. When I opened it I got an error stating that MP3 codec was not found. Googled it for a while and all i got was to use “apt-get install libk3b2-mp3″. Since I use Fedora there is no apt-get and while trying yum for the same codec “yum install libk3b2-mp3″ i got an message like no depentcies found nothing to do. After a long Search I got your post.
