Daniel, thank you for the patch! I wish I had more of people like you!
Sadly, the weird licensing around MPEG codecs means we can not require
using the plugin in "universe" archive. The one in the "partner"
repository has a different legal status, and we *have* to use it
instead. (IANAL, and I do not understand why.)
The hole we stepped in here is that partner repositories so-far are not
migrated/updated until Beta 1 of Ubuntu. This bug makes it obvious that
is a bad idea, and so the people in charge of them are going to
reconsider.
This should be fixed soon, by moving packages in a repository.
