since these packages are very old, what about the security of these
files? For example there are codecs for QiuckTime included, are
these files not affected by security bugs of the original
software?

I have asked a similar question about the mplayerplug-in package
in the rpmforge mailing list but unfortunately get no answer.
The current QuickTime is at version 7.6.7 while the
QuickTime-Plugin of mplayerplug-in is at version 7.4.5.

At this moment I took the decision to uninstall all these codecs and
plugins.
