[Bug 222265] Re: Kaffeine cannot install libdvdcss codec

[Jayhawk]

It looks like the call for /usr/lib/kaffeine/install-codecs ffmpeg does
not get called when libxine1-ffmpeg is not installed.  Instead it looks
like it does the call for dvdcss instead.  Since this is the case, the
user thinks that kaffeine is having problems with libdvdcss even though
it really has an issue with libxine1-ffmpeg not being installed.  If you
call /usr/lib/kaffeine/install-codecs ffmpeg, it does the call correctly
and installs the missing package.

The other possible issue is that /usr/lib/kaffeine/install-codecs seems
to find libdvdcss2-dev (in search_pkg) first and since it is not
installed, it says that it needs to install libdvdcss2 even though it
really is installed.  If the user requests to have libdvdcss installed,
would it be possible to add the medibuntu repository, do a repository
update, and have adept-batch do the libdvdcss install instead of calling
the kubuntu.org?  This will allow the package to stay up to date.
