I have the following xine packages installed:
xine-lib-extras-freeworld-1.1.21-3.fc16.i686
xine-ui-skins-0.99.7-2.fc16.noarch
xine-lib-extras-1.1.21-2.fc16.1.i686
xine-lib-1.1.21-2.fc16.1.i686
xine-ui-aaxine-0.99.7-2.fc16.i686
oxine-0.7.1-11.fc16.i686
gxine-0.5.907-2.fc16.i686
xine-ui-0.99.7-2.fc16.i686

Xine-check seems to output some messages
that need to be perhaps changed or corrected??

$ xine-check
Please be patient, this script may take a while to run...
[ good ] you're using Linux, doing specific tests
[ good ] looks like you have a /proc filesystem mounted.
[ hint ] ummm, you're running a strange kernel version.
          Your kernel says, it's version 3.4.11-1.fc16.i686, but I don't 
know << So what??
          anything about this version. That probably means
          You should either upgrade your kernel or upgrade this script.
          press <enter> to continue...

[ good ] intel compatible processor, checking MTRR support
[ good ] you have MTRR support and there are some ranges set.
[ good ] found the player at /usr/bin/xine
[ good ] /usr/bin/xine is in your PATH
[OUCH!!] no libxine.pc on this machine. <<<< I do have xine-lib 
installed, but it does not install libxine.pc
          This means that xine-lib is either not installed
          or it is installed in a very unusual place.
          So you should probably install xine-lib before running 
xine-check...
          press <enter> to continue...

[ hint ] unable to determine plugin directory <<< And what is the user 
supposed to do so xine-check can determine plugin dir?
          I could not determine your plugin directory. That would be 
much easier
          if you had libxine.pc installed (see message above)...
          Note that I could not check your xine plugins.
          press <enter> to continue...

[ good ] /dev/cdrom points to /dev/sr0
[ good ] /dev/dvd points to /dev/sr0
[ hint ] Your DVD drive seems not to be attached via ATAPI.
          This might be due to the use of an ide-scsi emulation.
          If you really have a SCSI DVD drive, your SCSI controller is 
likely
          to do perfect DMA, so there's no reason to worry about this.
          However, if you're using ide-scsi, there is a chance that DMA is
          disabled for the DVD drive. Moreover, I don't know how to enable
          DMA in that case, so you probably have to live with some 
performance
          loss. (FIXME: check for /proc/ide, provide solution)      <<< 
There is no /proc/ide
