I notice that the binary that was downloadable from the realplayer site
was a big binary, which I'm not willing to just blindly allow itself to
manage install for me.  Does anyone know how it unpacks, or maybe would
anyone be willing to let me have the unpacked binaries (and maybe config
files? too) involved?  I'm just not willing to trust some 3rd party with
my system.
