So pkgdb -F should not remove mplayer as dependency. And an interesting
thing now is when you got it removed?

I've tried to install multimedia/kino and pkgdb -F. It does not remove
mplayer for me.

I hope I found all issues and will release a new version today. It will
fix ghostscript and relate issues but you will need to add the ports in
ALT_PKGDEP section in pkgtools.conf just like this:

ALT_PKGDEP = {
  'print/ghostscript-afpl' => 'print/ghostscript-gnu',
  'www/apache13' => 'www/apache13-modssl',
}
