If I understand correctly, xmms is no longer considered stable or
reliable; it has no maintainer, and has been abandoned by the upstream
maintainer. So, people using it need to transition to something else.
I'm sure someone will correct me if I am wrong.

Audacious is a fork of xmms and works quite well for me.

I would recommend Audacious. Previously I used winamp on Windows and
xmms on Linux. Audacious is very similar in 'feel', very sleek and does
the job. Plays mp3, mpc, ogg, flac, possibly many more Install
plugins package as well.

Wow, that package changes names every few years, doesn't it? It was
X11Amp, then XMMS, now Audacious...

I have sid i386 and xmms still shows up:
...
wmxmms2 - remote-control dockapp for XMMS2
...
xmms2 - Client/server based media player system
...
xmms - Versatile X audio player
...
Specifically wmxmms is handy with fvwm, which audacious doesn't have: it
shows up as a docked application and clicking it will start it.

It would be interesting to see what the results of this command are
on your computer:
