Basically that is the question : are the ubuntu restricted extras legal in Germany? I have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with no extras installed jet since I am not sure is that legal here. Tnx
I was trying to install Adobe flash plugin for Firefox 24.0 on Ubuntu 12.04 for which I executed sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
and I got the following messages:
What suprises me is the packages it is downloading: .exe
Is this normal?
I still can't seem to play movie DVDs on my Ubuntu 11.10 even after installing restricted extras and after trying this
This[a] is the error message that I get with movie player. VLC doesn't play the DVD either.
What gives
[a]Could not read DVD. This may be because the DVD is encrypted and a DVD decryption library is not installed.
I'd like to know whether it is legal to install the msttcorefonts
package and also whether installing Windows software using Wine is also legal? I currently live in Brazil and I don't know what specific rules apply over here.
I would like to install the restricted extras package, which I didn't select during the install. How can I do that?
ubuntu-restricted-extras is a meta-package that installs:
- Support for MP3 and unencrypted DVD playback
- Microsoft TrueType core fonts
- Flash plugin
- codecs for common audio and video files
