Hi Charles, thanks for your reply. I worked on this NMU due to mppenc being a Recommends: of pacpl, as you already stated, but I'm not actually interested in maintaining it. The package didn't receive updates since the version in stable (2007-09), but on the other hand its popcon is still slowly increasing, so I guess we can avoid removal from the archive. I'd propose my NMU as a short-term solution, or maybe poking someone on pkg-multimedia team (CCing) for a long-term one (as a side note, libmpc is currently maintained under their umbrella).
