During Debconf I worked on player for the python-support-removal. Player FTBFS 
at that time
due to the gcc transition which was an addition reason to contacted the 
maintainer.
player has an RC bug for more than 2 years already¹, without any action as far 
as I can see
anywher (except NMU which didn't target that issue). Due to the RC bug, Player 
is
not available in stable or testing. The maintainer didn't respond to my e-mail 
(of two months
ago, cc-ed to the MIA team). The maintainer has a long record in the MIA 
database.

Please remove player from Debian unstable.

Popcon peaks at 166 (there are 29 binary package involved)
Lintian reports 3519 errors and 52 warnings (mostly privacy breach issues)
