I'm sorry. You missed my point. You can't just install lame and it's
accompanying application plugins. Sure, you can install
gstreamer-plugins-bad, but even different repositories have support for
different libraries.

Speaking of gstreamer-plugins-bad, I don't even grab mine from any
repository. I have to compile my own as I use the timidity and wildmidi
plugins (which aren't enabled in any of the repos, as far as I can
tell).
