lame has never been in Debian proper. For many years all that sort of
less than free stuff was maintained in Marillat's repository (well,
maybe not *all*, but Marillat's was the home to most of the audio &
video stuff at least). That appears to have changed earlier this year:

I figured out how to install lame from the debian multimedia archive using apt.  I was able to encode a wav file to mpg from the comand line, but grip still doesn't work.  Anyone willing to share a lame configuration for grip that works?  The default command configuration is -h -b %w %m.
