Or yea whatever it takes to make it work. When I added the feature to
Amarok 1.4 it was in the context of most distros not doing anything.
Now many distros have rolled their own method to support codec
installs. Mandriva has it built right into Phonon I believe.

So I'm not sure it makes sense for Amarok now. If its requested by one
of the distros themselves though, then that would be different.
