Bug Description

When Amarok is first launched in Kubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala 64bit, kdesudo window comes up asking user to enter password to execute:

install-package --install libmp3lame0 libtunepimp5-mp3 libk3b3-extracodecs libavcodec-unstripped-52 flashplugin-installer libxine1-ffmpeg

Because I didn't want the flashplugin-installer (I had the 64bit one already in), I tried to add them manually and found that libk3b3-extracodecs isn't even in the repositories. The correct package name should be libk3b6-extracodecs.

root@konstantin:~# apt-get install libk3b3-extracodecs

Package libk3b3-extracodecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
  libk3b6-extracodecs
E: Package libk3b3-extracodecs has no installation candidate

This is an issue with the extras notifier of update-notifier-kde. The fix is quite simple, and I've committed to bzr for the next release.

  [ Harald Sitter ]
  * Update desktop file:
    * Remove deprecate Encoding
    * Add Type (LP: #385519)
    * Replace old autostart settings with autostart-phase (LP: #369726)

  [ Jonathan Thomas ]
  * libk3b3-extracodecs -> libk3b6-extracodecs in update-notifier-kde.py
    (LP: #387449)
  * Turn back off the update notifications since KPackageKit's notifier now
    works
  * update-notifier-kde depends on kpackagekit since it can invoke KPK's
    update module
