If you're talking about debian-multimedia repo mplayer package, the gui was only available for x86, and now Christian decided to remove the gui from his repo... You can take a look at the discussion thread: http://www.debian-multimedia.org/lurker/thread/20111202.173103.d48cf110.en.html#i20111202.173103.d48cf110 I would suspect then both testing and unstable were affected by this... Any ways, most front ends are good alternatives, even if you don't use a DE. I don't use any DE, and I'm fine with gnome-mplayer, and it's used by the gecko media player as well, so it works fine for me, but you can always look for other alternatives... -- Javier. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
