As a mp3 playlist lover I would like to use a decent and simple program for playing mp3's. So I always use xmms, on every distro, also on Ubuntu.Someone has decided to remove the xmms package from the Ubuntu repositories. Why can't I decide for my own if I would like to use xmms on my ubuntu?
I get the point why they did it. I think it was because of the little bugs in xmms. But the apt-get install xmms command didn't help. The package couldn't be found.
The strange part is that the rest of the packages are still available. I think they have a little fever at Ubuntu or something.
So this is a way to install xmms on Ubuntu without compiling.
