These are definitely fixed in 1.5, and the fix for giflib should be not hard to cherry-pick for 1.4 if there is a need. > and #958865 (crash on theora) really ought > to be fixed too. I could never reproduce it, but it could be I never tested 1.4 Debian build. But chances are this is fixed by 1.5 at least. > If we had a maintainer who is able to deal with > those, and also deal with some of the outstanding bug gardening, then > we could conclude that mplayer ought to stay. I am completely unfamiliar with the Debian processes and doubt I have time to learn (and interacting with the bug tracker seems supremely painful and confusing to me). So I also don't know what exactly is needed. But if it's just about debugging/fixing bugs or finding patches to cherry-pick I am here, and as said the lists are also there, as is MPlayer's trac bug tracker (though not that actively monitored, so would need to ping me for a fast response).
