Bug Description
Since the Maverick update I have been unable to install mplayer-gui or even gstreamer0.
I actually can install the libdirectfb-1.2-0 package, but this requires removing libdirectfb-1.2-9 which in turn, removes the dependent packages of that such as gimp and gstreamer0.
Therefore I can either have libdirectfb-1.2-0, for mplayer-gui and gstreamer0.
libdirectfb-1.2-9 is listed as "conflicts" libdirectfb-1.2-0, but weirdly, libdirectfb-1.2-9 is listed as a "dependent package" of libdirectfb-1.2-0 which it shouldn't be - libdirectfb-1.2-0 is only listed in libdirectfb-1.2-9 as a conflicting package, not a dependency.
Hope I didn't make that all too confusing.

confirmed and triaged. mplayer needs to be rebuilt for the directfb and ffmpeg transition
