32 I didn't mean in any way to debate your statement about xine-lib -
33 just to add that css may be required for some _other_ packages.

35 It transpires that the only packages I seem to have on my systems
36 using the css USE flag are rippers (undvd & k3b), so I apologise for
37 my mistake.

39 I actually find this a little surprising. I might have thought that
40 the devs might have separated the decryption and playback components:
41 one could imagine it being legal to play back a region 0 DVD in some
42 territories, but not to install or operate encryption "circumvention"
43 software.
