Thanks. Does not seem to me to be the best solution, though: if a package is |
| 12 |
masked, many users won't install it, so what's the absence of bug report |

indicating? |

In my case, the funny thing is: DVDRIP is not masked and does not work. |

Acidrip is masked and works like a charm. |

capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the |
