There seems to be a multilib/"32bit hack" problem on FC5 x86_64, using
0.5.15lorg3-rc2:

# apt-get remove mplayer
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
   mplayer (1.0-0.39.20060412.lvn5)
   mplayer-fonts (1.1-3.lvn5)
   mplayer-gui (1.0-0.39.20060412.lvn5)
   mplayerplug-in.32bit (3.25-1.lvn5)
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 4 removed and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 18.9MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
        mplayer >= 1.0-0.lvn.0.13.pre5 is needed by (installed) mplayerplug-in-3.25-1.lvn5.i386
E: Transaction set check failed
E: Handler silently failed

The 32-bit mplayerplug-in was marked for removal, but apparently not
included in the actual transaction?
