Trying to understand this. I install suse 10.3 clean. Try to install Mplayer for suse from Packman. It says it has 45 dependencies. Do I really need to hunt down and install 45 RPM's before I can install Mplayer? It was simple with Suse 10.2.

You should understand it if you where on the other side of the problem,
like a packager for the packman team, where they have build packages
for 10.3 beta, and then opensuse 10.3 get released, and even before
they can upgrade their own machines, you expect it to work without errors.

Instead of MPlayer, try VLC at Videolan.org. It works on Suse 10.3.
