Bug#83227: realplayer8 installer provides no way of cancelling
Package: realplayer
Version: 8.0
just did an "apt-get dselect-upgrade". one of the packages to be
upgraded was realplayer. it's debconf template told me where to get
realplayer 8 from, but provided no way of saying "bugger that for a
joke, i'll download it later when i have time".
this stalled the download until i gave in and just downloaded the damn
thing, once again having to give a dummy email address to those spammers
at Real Networks.
i'll remember to put the damn package on hold this time. i rarely use it
anyway.
