installing vlc, and libdvdcss.so.2
 

When I try installing libdvdcss.so.2 for vlc I get this:

file /usr/lib/libdvdcss.so.2 from install of libdvdcss-1.2.8-1.fr conflicts with file from package xine-1_030715_cvs-ub3


Is xine-1_030715_cvs-ub3 an important package?

Does anyone know of any work arounds for this, or am I the only one with this problem?


Thanks

xine is used to play movies, dvds and such things. Since you are installing css decryption tools, I guess that you will need at least one DVD player.
To work around the problem, be sure to include --nodeps in the rpm command (I have no idea, how to do this in the gui program)

I tried rpm --nodeps libdvdcss-1.2.8-2.fr.i386.rpm and I get this:

Then I try rpm -ivh libdvdcss-1.2.8-2.fr.i386.rpm to see if it installed and I get the original message, again.

I dont think its working!?! :confused:

I just checked the manuals, it only works when you remove packages, sorry

How do I remove a package?

I got it I just forced the install. :o
