I: mplayer: acute-accent-in-manual-page
[usr/share/man/cs/man1/mplayer.1.gz:6551]
N: 
N:   This manual page uses the \' groff sequence. Usually, the intent is to
N:   generate an apostrophe, but that sequence actually renders as an acute
N:   accent.
N:   
N:   For an apostrophe or a single closing quote, use plain '. For single
N:   opening quote, i.e. a straight downward line ' like the one used in
shell
N:   commands, use '\(aq'.
N:   
N:   In case this tag was emitted for the second half of a '\\' sequence,
this
N:   is indeed no acute accent, but still wrong: A literal backslash should
be
N:   written \e in the groff format, i.e. a '\\' sequence needs to be changed
N:   to '\e' which also won't trigger this tag.
N: 
N:   Please refer to Bug#554897, Bug#507673, and Bug#966803 for details.

N:

N:   - == in a test, it should use = instead - read without a variable in the
N:   argument - function to define a function - source instead of . - .
command
N:   args, passing arguments to commands via source is not supported -
N:   {foo,bar} instead of foo bar - [[ test ]] instead of [ test ] (requires
a
N:   Korn shell) - type instead of which or command -v

I: mencoder: file-references-package-build-path [usr/bin/mencoder]
N: 
N:   The listed file or maintainer script appears to reference the build path
N:   used to build the package as specified in the Build-Path field of the
N:   .buildinfo file.
N:   
N:   This is likely to cause the package to be unreproducible, but it may
also
N:   indicate that the package will not work correctly outside of the
N:   maintainer's own system.
N:   
N:   Please note that this tag will not appear unless the .buildinfo file
N:   contains a Build-Path field. That field is optional. You may have to set
N:   DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=buildinfo=+path or use
N:   --buildinfo-option=--always-include-path with dpkg-buildpackage when
N:   building.
N: 
N:   Please refer to https://reproducible-builds.org/,

I: mplayer source: repackaged-source-not-advertised [debian/copyright]
N: 
N:   The debian/copyright file mentions Files-Excluded but the source version
N:   has no repack suffix.
N:   
N:   Repackaged sources are expected to indicate in their version number that
N:   they are different from the upstream release. It is commonly done by
N:   adding a repack suffix to the upstream version.
N:   
N:   The choice of repack suffix depends on the reason for repackaging. When
N:   some files were excluded because licensing was a concern, the suffix
+dfsg
N:   may be appropriate. In more generic cases, one could chose +ds.
N:   
N:   Upstream sources are sometimes repackaged by accident when using old
N:   versions of dh_make. It can also happen when a maintainer invokes the
N:   dh_make option --createorig even though it is not needed.
N:   
N:   According to the Debian Developer's Reference 6.7.8.2, the repack suffix
N:   is not required.
N:   
N:   Please include such a suffix in the changelog version number to avoid
this
N:   warning.
N: 
N:   Please refer to Bug#471537 and
N:

N:   Lintian found a spelling error in the given binary. Lintian has a list
of
N:   common misspellings that it looks for. It does not have a dictionary

N:   If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help
of
N:   gettext or a similar tool, please fix the error in the translations as
N:   well as the English text to avoid making the translations fuzzy. With
N:   gettext, for example, this means you should also fix the spelling
mistake
N:   in the corresponding msgids in the *.po files.
N:   
N:   You can often find the word in the source code by running:
N:   
N:    grep -rw <word> <source-tree>

8. Upgrade [Over previous installs if any]: Not performed at this time

Summary...

I believe mplayer is not yet ready for sponsorship at this time. Could the
contributor rectify one of more of the rasied issues. Once updated to your
satisfaction and a new upload done, please remove the 'moreinfo' tag on the
Request For Sponsorship (RFS) bug report.

Regards

Phil
