The fact is minitube can't play a lot of videos in youtube
without codecs from
rpmfusion(xine-lib-freeworld or gstreamer-plugins-ugly). But it should not
depend on any packages in rpmfusion, because we can not force users to use xine
backend.
The Xine backend is the default Phonon backend in Fedora, as such, we should
make the package work out of the box with that backend.
The gstreamer backend is the recommended backend by the minitube
author,
This is not true. The Minitube FAQ explicitly says that KDE users will prefer
the Xine backend and doesn't recommend one backend over the other. And this is
not Minitube's decision anyway, the default Phonon backend is a systemwide
decision.
also phonon itself don't depend on any backends explicitly.
Phonon only depends
on a virtual provides phonon-backend.
We can change this if that's your problem (and in fact we probably will once we
have phonon-backend-vlc, either to force xine to keep it as the default, or to
force vlc for people who are upgrading if we switch the default).
Actually, adding this package to rpmfusion can't help end users
at all, because
it can't depends on needed external bits from rpmfusion(gstreamer-*
xine-lib-extras-freeworld).
Of course it can (and IMHO, MUST) depend on xine-lib-extras-freeworld (and
probably phonon-backend-xine too, just to make sure that
xine-lib-extras-freeworld has an effect). Making the package work out of the
box with the default Phonon backend should be our top priority.
