You could get the version (assuming there is one) in sarge by going to ftp.debian-multimedia.org or a suitable mirror. But there are quite a bit of dependencies showing for the package. (this is for the one that's currently available in debian-multimedia etch repository: Uncompressed Size: 5513k Depends: libaa1 (>= 1.2), libartsc0 (>= 1.5.0-1), libasound2 (> 1.0.11), libatk1.0-0 (>= 1.9.0), libaudio2, libaudiofile0 (>= 0.2.3-4), libavcodeccvs51 (>= 3:20060612), libavutilcvs49 (>= 3:20060612), libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6), libcairo2 (>= 1.0.2-2), libcdparanoia0, libdirectfb-0.9-24, libdivxdecore0 (>= 1:5.0.1), libdv4, libdvdread3 (>= 0.9.6), libesd0 (>= 0.2.35) | libesd-alsa0 (>= 0.2.35), libfaac0 (>= 1.24+cvs20060416), libfaad2-0 (>= 2.0.0+cvs20060416), libfontconfig1 (>= 2.3.0), libfreetype6 (>= 2.2), libfribidi0 (>= 0.10.7), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.0), libggi2 (>= 1:2.0.5), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.10.0), libgsm1 (>= 1.0.10), libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.0), libjack0.100.0-0 (>= 0.101.1), libjpeg62, liblame0 (>= 3.96.1), liblircclient0, liblzo1, libmad0 (>= 0.15.1b), libmpcdec3, libncurses5 (>= 5.4-5), libogg0 (>= 1.1.3), libopenal0a, libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.12.3), libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.8rel), libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.10-1), libslang2 (>= 2.0.1-1), libsmbclient (>= 3.0.2a-1), libspeex1, libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.0), libsvga1 | svgalib-dummyg1, libtheora0, libungif4g (>= 4.1.3), libvorbis0a (>= 1.1.2), libvorbisenc2 (>= 1.1.2), libx11-6, libxcursor1 (> 1.1.2), libxext6, libxfixes3, libxi6, libxinerama1, libxrandr2, libxrender1, libxt6, libxv1, libxvidcore4 (>= 1:1.0.0-0.0), libxvmc1, libxxf86dga1, libxxf86vm1, xlibmesa-gl | libgl1, zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.1), mplayer-skin I have no idea whether all those files will be on the 8 cd's you'll be transporting to the location. You could roll your own from sources (which is what I recently did. This briefly consists of ensuring you have all the necessary build components, getting the sources and making the deb (fakeroot debian/rules binary' done in the top-level directory of the source package.) But then you'd need all the depends + development files associated with building that package. > mplayer are complete?

An easy way would be to apt-get -d mplayer after making sure the box has the appropriate lines included to define debian-multimedia.org as a source (and doing the appropriate apt-get update, of course). That'll download mplayer and any dependencies it needs that you don't already have. You could then burn them onto a CD or put them on a USB stick, but since you're the one with the better bandwidth, again, have no idea whether or not your efforts will duplicate anything that isn't already on the first 8 disks. Even so, that's the preferable way to go anyway, and a little bit of wasted space on possible duplicated files shouldn't be an issue. Besides, ti'd be faster for you to get them rather than attempt to d/l at the remote location. > Kumar -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
