Bug Description

Binary package hint: totem

With the addition of OGG vorbis and theora support within firefox in karmic the totem browser plugin shouldnt be installed by default. This is because theora and vorbis and other free formats are the only supported formats shipped with ubuntu and if they are supported in the browser too then its duplication of functionality. The browser plugin should be installed if wma or mp4...etc is needed.
