The broken symlink is only part of the story.  Here is what I wrote on
the duplicate's (358848) page:

"Go to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and list the files. You will find that
libtotem-basic-plugin.so is a broken symbolic link, to
/usr/lib/totem/default/libtotem-basic-plugin.so. If you go to firefox
and do about:plugins, you will find that there is a large class of
simple media files, including mpg, that are not assigned to a plugin
because this basic plugin is missing. If you actually go to
/usr/lib/totem/default, you find that there are four plugin files, three
of which have correct symlinks in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. But there is
also a file called libtotem-cone-plugin.so, which is not linked
anywhere."
