yum -y update
[lots of messages here...]
Error: Missing Dependency: libavcodec.so.51 is needed by package xine-lib
Error: Missing Dependency: faad2 = 0:2.0-0.lvn.5.4 is needed by package
xmms-faad2
And it ends there. Just to see if it was missing some file I built from
source I ran:
rpm -qa | grep faad
xmms-faad2-2.0-0.lvn.5.4
faad2-2.0-0.lvn.5.4
rpm -qla | grep libavcodec
/usr/lib/libavcodec-CVS.so
/usr/lib/libavcodec.so
/usr/lib/libavcodec.so.51
It looks like the version of ffmpeg in livna and the one in Planet CCRMA
are not compatible. I have:
ffmpeg-0.4.9-0.1.20050427
Packages in Planet CCRMA that seem to be affected would be:
ffmpeg2theora, kino, mjpegtools
(I think)
Do you have any of those installed?
I wonder what is triggering the problem in yum...
I don't know much about yum but it must be possible to tell it to ignore
updates to packages, or to establish priorities between repositories.
You could do something like that with ffmpeg so that yum does not try to
upgrade to the Planet CCRMA version.
I do have some of thoes packages installed:
rpm -q mjpegtools ffmpeg kino ffmpeg2theora
mjpegtools-1.8.0-0.lvn.1.4
ffmpeg-0.4.9-0.lvn.0.20.20051228.4
kino-0.7.6-0.lvn.3.4
package ffmpeg2theora is not installed
I tried to upgrade just these packages but it comes back to
libavcodec.so.51 for xine-lib
rpm -q xine-lib
xine-lib-1.1.1-0.lvn.3.4
What version of xine-lib is in ccrma?
Planet CCRMA does not have it.
Or perhaps your repository has a newer ffmpeg then
livna, and the solution
is for livna to update their xine-lib with the new ffmpeg?
Nope, according to your package list livna's version of ffmpeg is newer
than Planet CCRMA's.
The guy that runs livna is pritty nice
and perhaps he would do that, if that is the problem...
I still do not understand where the breakdown is happening though. Your
version of libavcodec (from ffmpeg) is newer then the livna libavcodec,
and so xine-lib should be happy, right?
No, I don't think livna's is older. Xine-lib wants a specific version of
libavcodec, and it is not compatible with the one in Planet CCRMA.
I still don't understand completely. Do you have xine-lib installed
already? Or is that what is triggering the problem when you try to
install it? What happens if you erase the Planet CCRMA yum configuration
and then install xine-lib (or whatever it is you want to install)?
We don't know if the package dependencies are clean in your rpm
database, I think. Yum can work (AFAIK) with an rpm database where
dependencies are not clean, apt can't. I don't know if there is a way in
yum to check dependencies (to make sure all are currently satisfied).
