Bug#760612: smplayer: error 127, libdvdnavmini.so.4 missing when opening media URL

[Andrew Kane]

Package: smplayer
Version: 14.3.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

In current Testing, /usr/lib/libdvdnavmini.so.4 is not part of package
libdvdnav4:

$ dpkg -L libdvdnav4
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/lintian
/usr/share/lintian/overrides
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/libdvdnav4
/usr/share/bug
/usr/share/bug/libdvdnav4
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/libdvdnav4
/usr/share/doc/libdvdnav4/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/libdvdnav4/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/libdvdnav4/copyright
/usr/share/doc/libdvdnav4/README

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdvdnav.so.4.1.2
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdvdnav.so.4

This results in the following error when opening a media URL in smplayer:

/usr/bin/mplayer -noquiet -nofs -nomouseinput -sub-fuzziness 1 -identify -slave

/usr/bin/mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdvdnavmini.so.4:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Since the dependency on libdvdnav4 is from package mplayer and not package
smplayer, this may not be an smplayer bug- but I'm reporting on smplayer in
case smplayer is somehow responsible for needing a DVD-related library to read
non-DVD-based media.

apt-cache depends mplayer|grep dvd
  Depends: libdvdnav4
  Depends: libdvdread4

It looks like libdvdnavmini is not provided by *any* package in Testing:
https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libdvdnavmini&mode=exactfilename&suite=testing&arch=any

Thanks for all you do, and I apologize if I've done this report wrong.
