Hi!

Since binary distributions are ruled out, why not have SRPM packaging
suitable for many linux distributions.

MPlayer requires may local options to compile and install properly in the 
local environment.
A solution is to have two packages:
+ one for recording the local options and
+ the main source distribution, dependent on the previous package.

The first package could be very simply the configuration file or could
also have some "intelligent" script to take user input to generate the
configuration file.

Regards,
Chitta
