At least here (Debian) mplayer depends on
the libavcodec package instead of copying the source (but it's a bit of
a special case as they come from a third-party package repository).

This is surprising because libavcodec and libavformat are static libraries so once the binary is generated there is no more dependency.

IIRC this third-party repository contains both the libavcodec package and the mplayer package so I suspect the two are very closely tied together.
