I just want to say that from what I have experienced, yum or it's GUI overlays don't work.

Also I don't know what *configuring* it could possibly need, if you install, it's just there, it's config file needs a server name which should have been put in, after that you just type "yum install <something>".

If you have apt, then why not use it.
apt-get install vlc should work for you.

i already try and i got this result....

[root@firdaus Desktop]# apt-get install vlc

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
vlc: Depends: libartsc.so.0 but it is not installable
E: Broken packages

Did you also install the rpmforge-release package with the apt?
If not then first install that. Its mentioned that apt and rpmforge-release both packages be installed.
Once both packages are installed give:

apt-get update

and then apt-get install vlc

rpm will not get dependencies for you, that is what yum is for. In order for it to get the dependencies you have to add the source of the rpm to your repos files.

Got caught in posting lag.

What was the exact response to yum install vlc?


What other repos (package sources) have you used?
