Bug Description

install-css.sh (at /usr/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh) in package libdvdread4-4.1.3-5ubuntu2 does not fetch current version of libdvdcss2. Fetches libdvdcss2_1.2.10-0.2medibuntu1_amd64.deb (fromhttp://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/free/libd/libdvdcss/libdvdcss2_1.2.10-0.2medibuntu1_amd64.deb for amd64 architecture) rather than libdvdcss2_1.2.10-0.3medibuntu1_amd64.deb.

The design question is whether to always update the script (and as a result, the package) when Medibuntu releases a new version (as I think is the current design) or to design it dynamically with a static fall back.

By this, I mean fetch the current repository list (I think http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu), parse it to generate a URL for the current version, and attempt to download that URL. If either the script can not generate a valid URL or the file can not be retrieved, fall back and attempt a download of a more static URL as it does currently.

Change install-css.sh to use current Packages list. Edit (2.1 KiB, text/plain)

I've tested this and so far things work well. It doesn't query the source list but does query and parse the current Packages list.
