Package: debian-policy Version: 3.1.1.1 I suggest a virtual package mp3-encoder be setup along with mp3-decoder. I'm not too sure of the licensing issues associated with lame, and i'm sure this has been discussed. But if lame is free of the ISO code now, it should be possible to package it now. Please cc any replies to me, as i'm not on the list and cannot follow it because of bandwidth constraints. viral.
