Understood, looked at the i586 instead. Suppose a new version of
mplayer is released today, how long would it take to appear in the
repository?

Can urpmi be used by the command terminal to upgrade only mplayer? If
related library files also need to be upgraded, can urpmi select
automatically only those required to run the latest version of
mplayer? Or must the entire mageia distribution be upgraded?
