[edgy] Amarok enabling Dapper-multiverse when downloading codecs

Bug Description

Binary package hint: amarok

This is a problem with the amarok (2:1.4.3-0ubuntu2) packages in the edgy repos.

If you try to play mp3 files with Amarok without libxine-extracodecs installed, it asks you to install the package. This happens automatically. The problem is that Amarok enables the Dapper repos and downloads from there. In the dapper repos libxine-extracodecs is at version 1.1.1, and therefor installs to /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.1.1 and not .../1.1.2 which results in Amarok/xine not finding it. Edgy users cannot play mp3 unless they install the package manually, or move the codec files maually.
