Bug Description

Binary package hint: mplayer

After upgrading from Ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 I was unable to get mplayer running with default GUI.
The 'mplayer-gui' has no installation candidate.

mplayer-gui has been removed in maverick because it is broken
upstream. It doesn't even build with a shared avcodec ATM.

I've noticed working mplayer-gui 1.0~rc4 package at motumedia repository, look at:
https://launchpad.net/~motumedia/+archive/ppa/+build/1896031

I simply added this repository, installed mplayer-gui package and got new working mplayer-gui release in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:motumedia
sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install mplayer-gui

Btw, I also copied new mplayer 1.0~rc4 and ffmpeg+ffmpeg-extra 0.6.2 packages to Baltix GNU/Linux 10.04 "testing" repository:
