Now, the new copyright in germany is coming into force, it's no longer allowed to provide tools to breake technical protections. Therefore we can no longer provide libdvdcss, sorry. To give you the capability to watch DVD's on linux systems, we want make you the installation as easy as possible. Download the libdvdcss tar.bz2-file in the same version as the nosrc.rpm from videolan , copy it to /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/, download the nosrc.rpm and compile the library using rpmbuild --rebuild libdvdcss*.nosrc.rpm . The final RPM's you can find in /usr/src/packages/RPMS/i586/ or /usr/src/packages/RPMS/x86_64/, you can install it like every other RPM. Guillermo Ballester Valor has written a littele bash-scripts to automate the download, build and installation of libdvdcss. You can download the script here .
