I've just upgraded my frontends to use the marillat versions. (I
exclusivley use testing/etch not unstable/sid BTW)

For others reading this thread: they are complete packages and work
well. Given that most debian users will have marillat for mplayer and
xine; and given that "it just works" then IMHO it's a damn sight easier
to apt-get myth too if you just want the 0.18.1 version.

Oh, notably goom now works in mythmusic and mythbrowser works out of the
box.
