So I removed kagu, and then mogg, and got this: # apt-get remove mogg Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree...

DO NOT EDIT!--> <comment>OGG audio</comment> </mime-type> The 'globs' file does have "audio/x-vorbis:*.ogg". However, the categories file, in category "audio", has "application/ogg" but NOT "audio/x-vorbis". Maybe that's the problem? Throwing caution to the wind, I recklessly and irresponsibly violated the "DO NOT EDIT!" instruction and added "audio/x-vorbis" by hand. However, the media player still doesn't find the oggs. Bugger. There's also a "magic" file, but that's in some sort of binary format that even I don't want to mess with.
