Installing VLC in FC-6???

nileshgr · Jun 13, 2007

I am not able install VLC media player. yum says some dependencies are missing.

i downloaded vlc.rpm to OperaDownloads folder in the Home directory. See the complete terminal log. I have also tried it with the rpm command.

Code:

$ cd OperaDownloads
$ su
Password: 
[root@localhost OperaDownloads]# ls
gpg_pubkey_jean-paul.saman.asc  vlc-0.8.5-1.i386.rpm

Dude @unknown.u need to configure "pirut" or "yum" to resolve the dependency hell u just faced.just google for FC6 Yum and follow that.
else go manually download all the dependencies which VLC rpm errors out.install them and finally install vlc.
u can configure yum.its easy provided u got internet working on fedora.
even u can install latest vlc from yum repositories rather than muscling with vlc rpm.

I added livna repos as suggested on vlc site.

It's better to use atrpms or livina or whatever unless they've solved the incompatibility problems. Last I had heard, mixing those repositories would cause a lot of headaches.

Hi There,

I am trying to install the vlc media player on RHEL 5. I have downloaded the rpm package: videolan-client-0.8.5-2.fc5.i386.rpm, extracted it, and tried to run: "rpm -i vlc-0.8.5-1.i386.rpm".
I get error abt failed dependencies.

As u got it installed successfully, can you please advise on the steps to be followed to get this installation done. Will really appreciate your help.

Thanks,

^this is the problem.u have to manually download and install each and every rpms it errors out.there is a tool called yum-which manages ur packages.also there is no such superiority for RHEL without a subscription and u need RHEL only if u run production servers

get fedora 7 latest it is the Redhat successor with latest packages and user-friendly too.
*fedorafaq.org
*fedoraproject.org
or even Debian,Ubuntu are at ur option
*ubuntu.com
*debian.org

I downloaded livna repository for yum the default package manager in Redhat OSes. Then as root typed {code]yum install vlc[/code]

yum will download the required dependencies.
