| Install all the other dependancies.  ie:
| sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
| gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly
| gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1
| libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui

This seems like exactly the same command, Subs used. And even if not, apt-get 
should pull in dependencies by itself.
It rather seems like you don't have the multiverse repository enabled, Subs?

There actually is a script in /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/install-css.sh, as 
documented on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs
