Description Ric de France 2004-01-26 15:41:43 UTC
It appears that the link to the home page for "xine-dmd" is no longer working correctly. It currently points to:

http://www.geocities.com/xinedvdplugin/

...and that shows a "page not found"...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Put URL (http://packages.gentoo.org/search/?sstring=xine-dmd) into a browser URL box.
2. Click on "home" icon.

Actual Results:  
Geocities / Yahoo page loads up with text stating "Sorry, the page you requested
was not found.".

Expected Results:  
The home page of the xine-dmd plug-in should appear.

Have e-mailed marduk and he's recommended to raise a bug here.

The DMD (Digital Movie Disc) plugin

A simple CSS-enabled plugin designed for viewing DVDs without any special features. It does, however, support multiple angles. It may be obtained from http://www.geocities.com/xinedvdplugin/.

What do we need this for?

We should drop this depricated plugin.  libdvdnav is integrated into Xine now.  I can't think of any reason to keep this plugin.
Comment 2 Ric de France 2004-03-25 19:54:22 UTC
It appears that the package has been removed from packages.gentoo.org. Since there was a reccommendation of deprecation, this can be considered closed.
