decibel-audio-player depends on gst-plugins-good If it is not installed then decibel produces the following message when an attempt is made to play a mp3 ** Message: don't know how to handle application/x-id3 Reproducible: Always
Nope. Decibel quite rightly depends on gst-plugins-meta. The USE flags of gst-plugins-meta determine the kinds of files your Gstreamer installation can play. Decibel plays back whatever media your Gstreamer package is built with. Next time, please read the elog output from when you emerged Decibel; if you had, you would have seen this message: Please read the Decibel guide at http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/sound/decibel.xml; it contains information on how to enable various features and audio formats. Specifically, http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/sound/decibel.xml#doc_chap2 Not a bug; closing.
