Look at the long list of unsolved bugs in mencoder https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer/+bugs?field.searchtext=mencoder and you get an idea why that package is not available in Ubuntu 15.04

What program is it that asks for mencoder? Maybe you better look for an alternative.

You might also look at https://bugs.debian.org/732159 for a long discussion about mplayer/mencoder and its alternatives.

Can you help with this problem?
