Since libdvdnav (and libdvdread) have been forked by one of MPlayer's
developers, there's been a significant bugfixing effort going on.
Unfortunately, the new upstream broke the API a bit. While before
you'd use
#include <dvdread/dvd_reader.h>
now you have to use
#include <libdvdread/dvd_reader.h>.
A libdvdread build that requires the above change has already landed
in rawhide. The ABI hasn't changed, so there's no immediate need to rebuild.

Any ideas why they did that and if similar breakage is expected to happen with
dvdnav soon (it's still <dvdnav/...>)?

Quite a while ago actually. I placed an ugly hack in dvdauthor that should
keep the package backwards compatible almost three weeks ago to take this
into account.

To avoid clash with MPlayer's internal libdvdread copy. I'm trying
to convince Nico to reverse that and change MPlayer's internal copy
instead (or remove it alltogether) before the next release.

I don't think it will happen. There was no need.

And I've been successful. Patch is already in SVN and the upcoming
4.1.3 release will keep the old include paths. MPlayer has already
been fixed, too.
Sorry for the extra work it caused you.
