Problem with update


When I try to update xmms with up2date, it says this:


There was a package dependency problem. The message was:

Unresolvable chain of dependencies:
xmms-mp3-1.2.8-0.lvn.2.1 requires xmms = 1:1.2.8

Please modify your package selections and try again.



What does that mean and how do I fix it?

I went to http://havardk.xmms.org/dist/xmms-1.2.7-rh8-rh9-rpm/ like you said, and I downloaded xmms-mpg123-1.2.7-21.i386.rpm and installed the package. Now it works.
