[Jonathan Marsden <105458@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ogmrip is already in universe.  It performs a similar role to Handbrake.

Packaging Handbrake so it does not need Internet access at build time
will be significant work, and require (I suspect) some ongoing packaging
maintenance to keep current (when upstream picks up a new version of
some library, Ubuntu packaging needs to change to match...).

Until someone with the packaging skills and time commitment to ongoing
maintenance of Handbrake packages for Debian/Ubuntu steps forward,
Handbrake seems to me to be unlikely to be officially packaged.  It's
build system is fundamentally at odds with the Debian/Ubuntu build
model.
