Are you sure it is wrong?

I cannot confirm your claim. Looking at:
https://player.helixcommunity.org/2005/downloads/ -- officially there
is 10.0.6 and 10.0.7 versions of Realplayer.

I previously had the 10.0.6 version:

[mirandam at charon ~]$ rpm -q RealPlayer
RealPlayer-10.0.6.776-20050915
[mirandam at charon ~]$ rpm --test -e compat-libstdc++-33
error: Failed dependencies:
        compat-libstdc++-33 = 3.2.3 is needed by (installed)
compat-gcc-32-c++-3.2.3-55.fc5.i386

However Realplayer does not show up.

So I removed compat-libstdc++-33 and 10.0.6 fails to launch.

Then I tried 10.0.7 without compat-libstdc++-33:

[mirandam at charon ~]# rpm -q RealPlayer
RealPlayer-10.0.7.785-20060201
[mirandam at charon ~]# rpm -q compat-libstdc++-33
package compat-libstdc++-33 is not installed
[mirandam at charon ~]# realplay
/usr/local/RealPlayer/realplay.bin: error while loading shared
libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory
[mirandam at charon ~]$ ldd /usr/local/RealPlayer/realplay.bin | grep libstdc
        libstdc++.so.5 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5 (0x00125000)

Am I missing something?

Where by chance did you get your Realplayer as I assume I am comparing
against the same version as you?
