I have a file /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdvdnavmini.so.4.1.2 on a Debian 
wheezy (amd64) system, but can't check now from which package it comes.

packages.debian.org gives no hit for libdvdnavmini.so in all of the newer dists 
inclusive jessie and apparently you can't search wheezy (oldoldstable) anymore.

I know I have packages installed from debian-multimedia repository as I don't 
have access to this wheezy system and maybe libdvdnav.so.4.1.2 is from one of 
them.

HTH,
Stefan
