You can have mplayer installed without it necessarily showing up for popcon. Since mplayer isn't in the debian repository proper, I have downloaded the source, compiled it myself and installed it into /usr/local. There are probably many other people like me. I am not sure how useful the popcon numbers are besides giving some kind of lower bound to mplayer. > I used the numbers in <URL:http://popcon.debian.org/by_inst.gz>. > > Friendly, > -- > Petter Reinholdtsen > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
