In a proper setup 'apt-get install mplayer' will get all the
libs, so the main annoyance is wasted disk space (and cleanup
work if you remove the package as that won't remove the
libgarbage).

recursive dependencies from libaa? Maybe something as obscure as
terminal output could be left out of a mainstream package.

I second that, you'd get a lot less garbage without this (also
maybe OpenGL could go in the GUI version?).
