Ah, but then it isn't IN Fedora at all. Fedora is just configured to be
able to obtain it. Something different. Fluendo has a distributable
mp3 plugin for gstreamer, however you do have to register for it, so no
pointing yum at it. I can't say whether or not registration is part in
parcel w/ the paid license to distribute mp3 decoders, but if so, no
automated installations will be possible w/out the interaction of
registering.
