TLDR: You may safely remove libdvd-pkg with sudo apt remove libdvd-pkg if you don't run DVDs.


This is probably a problem with the package and doesn't seem to be a problem specific to elementary OS as it also affects vanilla Ubuntu 18.04. It's removal may affect if you run DVDs.

Try this one:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure libdvd-pkg

Then a prompt will appear, you can use the "Tab" key on keyboard to select the option. Select "Yes" and press "Enter" key. If the next time you face this issue, select "No".

I had the same problem. And I discovered that the problem is in the installation of a ppa repository. Maybe you had been installing some programs with a new repository. You need to delete this one!
