Umm, it's asking for a file location, and not a URL, right? (At least that's
how it was on my system.) You need to download the rpm distribution of
RealPlaer from Real's web site (www.real.com), and then give the location of
that file to the installer.
The reason for this roundabout way of doing things is that Real doesn't allow
redistribution of their files, so Debian can't repackage it.
I'd tell you how big the file is, but I seem to have deleted it.
