5 k3b supports audio CD ripping and burning. This is independant of audio
6 support in your kernel, which basically means how to make sounds come
7 out the speakers. k3b's support allows it to understand the data on an
8 audio cd

10 The packages you list are hard coded into the k3b ebuild, but nothing in
11 the sources implies that audio cd support is mandatory.Maybe ask the
12 devs why they did it this way?
