Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: sox
When trying to change the speed of a MP3 file the sox program fails to convert
mp3 files exiting with the error "
# sox x.mp3 y.mp3 tempo 1.5
sox soxio: Failed writing `y.mp3': SoX was compiled without MP3 encoding support
Running the same command with ogg files worked fine.
I'm running Kubunty 8.04 Hardy (updated form Gusty) with sox version
14.0.0-5 installed. I've also installed libsox-fmt-all and I have
several /usr/lib/libmp3lame* files. All other music applications play
mp3.
