Also note that the DVD menu hack in Dragon Player only works with phonon-
backend-xine.
Hopefully we'll soon have code which uses the new Phonon interfaces, which
work with phonon-backend-gstreamer (the new default).
As for kdebase-runtime, it has a System Settings module to configure Phonon-
Xine. That stuff needs to go away in Rawhide along with phonon-backend-xine.
