btw, why do you need mplayer_nice in the first place? afaiu, qemplayer is an qt frontend to mplayer, and does not need realtime I/O priorities any more than mplayer itself. mplayer_nice is key feature of qemplayer. Realtime I/O priority for MPlayer is needed when some other application is fully loading hard drive. It prevents empty buffer in MPlayer. Nice -20 ensures that MPlayer always gets needed CPU time if some other application fully loading CPU. mplayer_nice could be provided by a separate binary package I will consider it. ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

I'm reading it using archives. This is a team. You need to subscribe to participate in our teamwork. - - pam_limits allows you to fine-tune those priviliges on a per-user basis. e.g. you can grant access to realtime-priorities, but not to reading /etc/passwd or to /dev/null'ing your harddisks. I will consider it. Will qemplayer be included in Debian if I will use pam_limits? We are striving for high quality packaging, not doing silly negotiating. is there any specific reason, why you install files into /usr/share/doc/qemplayer/ and /usr/share/doc/qemplayer-12.5/? I don't know why files are installed into /usr/share/doc/qemplayer/. I'm installing into /usr/share/doc/qemplayer-12.5 because this way is used on Gentoo. This is not Gentoo.
