Ah. I didn't realise that. I'll guess that's it.

They follow after everything else so when I get packages from other
sources first it doesn't really harm, does it? And when a package is
only available as unstable then it's better to have this than nothing.
Besides, I use Gentoo on my machine, so don't warn me about unstable
packages ;-)

Correction: 1.2.10

I installed it before reading your helpful replies. Does the package
from xmms.org have the mp3 plugin installed by default? They don't offer
it for download separately. What about the other packages they offer
along? I guess I'll need the ogg-vorbis thing (why they didn't include
this in the main package is a riddle to me). 

thanks and kind regards,
Tobias
