Removed from requirements list, then.

Would do, and may do, but.
Had already been to blinkenlights.de, as suggested elsewhere, but do not
see how that is relevant to video-out methods (unless the bl video-out
method assumes you have mplayer hooked up to something with such a
building's worth of window lights to turn on and off, which seems wildly
unlikely).

I gathered that, yes. What I haven't been able to figure out is what I
need to have in order to enable it. configure.log mentions libsmbclient,
which is present in the APT packages database I have, but is apparently
already installed - just not detected. libsmbclient.a and libsmbclient.h
are in /usr/include/, and I have just now symlinked them to
/usr/local/include (and done corresponding things to
/uar/lib/libsmbclient*), but configure still doesn't detect them.
I feel severely as if this is the sort of thing which should be covered
in the documentation rather than asked about onlist, but last time I
looked in the docs I don't think it was gone over, and I don't think
they have been updated that heavily since then... regardless, I don't
know where in the documentation I'd need to look.
