The only way you can possibly get this to play anything without packages from
RPM Fusion is by installing phonon-backend-gstreamer and manually switching the
Phonon backend to GStreamer (the default is Xine). Then it could in principle
play back WebM videos, but does Minitube support them? In particular, does it
know to pick the WebM format over other available ones? I doubt it.

With the default phonon-backend-xine, you need xine-lib-extras-freeworld even
to support WebM (if it even works at all, see bug 606082) because xine-lib does
not have native support for WebM/libvpx, it can only be played through FFmpeg
which is in RPM Fusion.

So I think this package will have to go to RPM Fusion.
