No binary mplayer in new package
Binary package hint: mplayer
Yesterday i've updated my ubuntu 10.04 with "apt-get upgrade". Today wanted to see one film with mplayer, but ubuntu said "no mplayer installed, install it with cmd ...". Ok, i've tried to install, but apt-get said what mplayer already installed(same for mplayer-nogui).
I've tried to reinstall with purge && install. Same...
But i've tried to see in packages with file-roller. And, oh g-d, i can't see mplayer binary file! gmplayer in, but no mplayer! Ofc, gmplayer throws errors when playing:
mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
My versions(from installing log):
mplayer (2:1.0~
mplayer-nogui (2:1.0~

No, you dont understand what i mean. I want to use cli mplayer, but binary mplayer not available in package.
>reorganize binary packages to no longer install the gui version by default
I dont need a gui version, i need a cli version(not a gmplayer, i want a mplayer).

Latest package weight - 73kb
mplayer-
But previous:
mplayer-
2mb. It's mplayer binary!
What package now contains it?
| Daniel T Chen (crimsun) said : | #4 |
As I pasted above, your packages are not synced with the archive. Please update and upgrade.
| iORlas (iorlas) said : | #5 |
But in archive no mplayer binary!
I've trying last 2 hours to update and upgrade, but now news.
See attached log of updating. What i doing wrong?
| Daniel T Chen (crimsun) said : | #6 |
Look at the output from apt-cache policy mplayer mplayer-nogui
| Reinhard Tartler (siretart) said : | #7 |
the command-not-found data is not updated yet. /usr/bin/mplayer is no shipped by the 'mplayer' package since version 2:1.0~rc3+
| iORlas (iorlas) said : | #8 |
>the command-not-found data is not updated yet
Really?
iorlas@lastangel:~$ ls /usr/bin/mplayer
ls: cannot access /usr/bin/mplayer: No such file or directory
And i remember, i'm not stupid. I've using find for searching binary, but nothing found.
