On ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/source theres a bunch of files (.dsc .diff .orig etc) appearing in this directory. Is this the correct behaviour?

Re: realplayer installer and frozen
I checked and REALPLAYER_HOME was set to the G2 directory (from an old manual installation). I changed it to /usr/lib/RealPlayer7 and realplayer started working. Then I deleted REALPLAYER_HOME environmental variable altogether and it still worked. This would indicate that it isn't required, but if it exists, it must point to the correct location. Thanks.
