Hi all!

At the beginning of the meeting, Hobbsee told us that currently, there
wasn't any xubuntu-restricted-extras package.
{k,}ubuntu-restricted-extras are metapackages which depends on some
commonly used package in the multiverse repository.

I can take care of the maintenance of this package, but I would like to
have your opinion concerning its dependencies.

* ubuntu-restricted-extras depends on:
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
msttcorefonts
flashplugin-nonfree
sun-java6-plugin
unrar
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
liblame0
libdvdread3

* kubuntu-restricted-extras:
flashplugin-nonfree
sun-java6-plugin
libxine1-plugins
libdvdread3
libk3b2-mp3
liblame0
unrar

We don't use all that gstreamer stuff nor k3b so we should drop them.
Same thing for libxine1-plugins: it depends on libxine1-gnome and
libxine1-kde which would come with some gnome and kde packages, and
that's not very optimal.

So I propose to depend on these packages:
flashplugin-nonfree
sun-java6-plugin
libxine1-ffmpeg
libdvdread3
liblame0
unrar
msttcorefonts

Any idea of package I may have forgotten/that is not useful?

Cheers,
Lionel
