Since there is a update policy for patents (see
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PatentPolicy) and there is a similar package in
universe (x264), I would like re-open this bug to include this package
in universe. libxvidcore is a depend of mplayer, and it need to be in
universe to allow mplayer to do the same.
As Matthew said, the software is under the GPL, so there is no reason to
not allow it in universe.

xvidcore should be in universe, not multiverse
