Package: mpg321 Version: 0.2.10.4 Severity: important I am currently unable to use mpg123, it dies with the error "can't create mcop directory". This is strange because (1) it is not trying to create a directory, according to strace; and (2) it seems to be using kde, which I never told it to do (I don't even use KDE). I think I may have installed something (wireshark?) which uses KDE and caused mpg321 to break. I've put some log information below. Thanks,
