 mozilla-mplayer is built against mozilla and hence links against its
 libxpcom.  There's no shlibs nor a library package for these library in
 the mozilla packages, so you have to explicitely depend on
 mozilla-browser.

 What you did would have worked when galeon and epiphany-browser were
 depending on mozilla-browser (they did so in the fast for this exact
 same reason).

 Right now, the ELF dependencies of the plugin are not honored, and it
 can't work without mozilla-browser, so in the short term you should add
 it back.

 What you might want to do to get some shared library support is to
 build against xulrunner which has a shared library, shlibs and stuff,
 and has it's shared libxpcom (in +d version).

 I'm not sure how it will work with mozilla-browser (does one really
 want to support that given the state of the source package?), it
 shouldn't be any worse with firefox, and should work nicely with
 xulrunner-enabled source packages: galeon, epiphany, devhelp, yelp...

   Bye,
