I have had .debs that don't create all the necessary symlinks for shared
libraries. Simply make the symlink yourself:
$cd /usr/lib
$ln -s libxvidcore.so.2.1 libxvidcore.so.2
$ln -s libxvidcore.so.2 libxvidcore.so
IIRC ldconfig should be doing that automatically, but... I think you'll
find the above works.
