install ffmpeg on Fedora Core 2 with apt
 

Hi, I need to be able to upload moive files and deliver to web as FLV files. I wanted to use ffmpeg-php, so started by trying to intall ffmpeg Fedora Core 2 with apt, the machine is a VPS.

I have the command lines:

apt-get install ffmpeg

You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ffmpeg: Depends: SDL but it is not going to be installed
Depends: faac but it is not going to be installed
Depends: faad2 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: imlib2 but it is not going to be installed
Depends: lame but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libSDL-1.2.so.0
Depends: libfaad.so.0
Depends: libmp3lame.so.0
Depends: libogg but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libogg.so.0
Depends: libvorbis but it is not going to be installed
Depends: libvorbis.so.0
Depends: libvorbisenc.so.2
mod_ssl: Depends: httpd (= 2.0.51-2.9) but 2.0.51-2.9.1.swsoft is to be installed
perl-MailTools: Depends: perl (= 5.8.3) but 3:5.8.3-18 is to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

What do I do about these unmet dependencies ?

Thank you for any help.

Try installing some of those unmet dependiencies by them selves. That may help out a little.

I just going round and round.

httpd is already the newest version.

What can I do differently ?

Doesn't Fedora have a graphical tool for install packages. I would try there as it will also install the packages needed.
