Realplayer 10 for Feisty

[This is a third party package that can not be supported by the Ubuntu Developers or Canonical]
I have built a .deb package using Feisty dependences for Realplayer 10 with pbuilder.
- Download the Realplayer .deb.package
- Install with gdebi or
sudo dpkg -i realplay_10.0.8-0ubuntu3~feisty3rdparty_i386.deb
Full sources can be found at http://mikesplanet.net/feisty/realplay/
Contact me if you have any problems with this package, do not file a bug report on http://www.launchpad.net.
Since you have a .deb package, just download and doubleclick.
Much easier directions than forcing shell commands.
The gdebi tool is the best thing to happen to unix packaging
for users who just want to install stuff.
Or just use the canonical repository for edgy. The packages in that repository still work on feisty:
deb http://archive.canonical.com edgy-commercial main
deb-src http://archive.canonical.com edgy-commercial main
Eventually these packages should find their way into feisty-commercial, but it took about 3 months for that to happen for edgy.
Nice, i was looking for it; i dont like too much mixed sources.list.

Install went just fine; i didnt have any real media file to test.
At least its able to play a mp3.
Cheers
I get the following error from GDebi:
Could not open ‘realplay_10.0.8-0ubuntu3~feisty3rdparty_i386.deb’
The package might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open the file. Check the permissions of the file.
The permissions are fine, and I’ve downloaded it a few times.
I was trying because the RealPlayer in the repos won’t play all sorts of things.
I just tried the package on a second machine with no problems. Try re-downloading it or install with dpkg.
