Milestone 2 and mp3s

In past versions of openSuSE 11.# I was always able to beat the
restricted mp3 problem. As a end user that seems normal. I have always
gotten Amarok to work correctly and use it all the time.  It would just
work after loading building xine-lib/ui.  Since Milestone 2 has come out
that fails to fix the problem and causes Amarok to just rapid advance
through the playlist.  It seems as of Milestone 2 openSuSE has made even
phonon or gstreamer void of playing mp3s.
I built a version 2.2.2 of Amarok and it reports the reason it will not
work is due to "phonon was built without MP3 support".  If Amarok is not
going to work correctly why is in available?  Save the space on the
DVD/CD.  My suggestion is to offer DVD/CD that is for an end user that
has end users applications that work.  I have been using SuSE/openSuSE
for over 10 years and it is becoming obvious why other distros are
finding favor.
