How do I playback a DVD in Ubuntu 17.10? I have so far:

sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
sudo apt-get install libdvd-pkg

There used to be something called Fluendo in the Ubuntu repository but it doesn't appear to be there any more. Am I the only person left using Ubuntu?

I followed advice given in various other question on Ask Ubuntu and on the Ubuntu man pages https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs but was still unable to play DVDs.
