commit: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=d89fa735a7a02151c02f10f13e3b62f1ac2b9b5e
branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Libplayer is dead upstream.  The mercurial repo is no longer online, it
hasn't seen any releases since 2010 and the mplayer backend was removed from
Buildroot in 2018.

With the upcoming removal of gstreamer 0.10, there is no longer any backends
available in Buildroot, so remove the package.

-From: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) <arnout at mind.be>
-Subject: [PATCH] libplayer: Fix handling of cflags in configure.
-
-The cflags returned by pkg-config or another config script may consist
-of several arguments for the compiler.  These should not be quoted together
-into a single argument.
