Bug description:
Ubuntu Gutsy, without any extra codecs installed
1. Try to open an MP3 file.
2. In the alert that appears, click "Search".
3. In the window that appears, check the checkboxes, clicking "Confirm" after
each one.
4. Click "Install".
5. In the "Apply the following changes?" window, expand the "To be installed"
section.
What you see: "gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg" and "gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly".
What you should see: Something that doesn't use the word "ugly".
Walt Mossberg: "When I tried to play common audio and video files,
such as MP3 songs, I was told I had to first download special files
called codecs that are built into Windows and Mac computers. I was
warned that some of these codecs might be “bad” or “ugly.”"

easier-to-use-but-not-for-everyone/>
Ways in which this could be fixed (not mutually exclusive):
* Give the plugin a more intelligent name. (This would be the most reliable
solution, as it would work for all installation methods.)
* Since I've already clicked the "Install" button, don't show the "Apply the
following changes?" window at all.
