xmms-mp3 can't install
I use FC4, and I used YUM to install xmms using "yum install xmms".
Well, apparently, FC4 version of xmms does not ship with mp3, so I downloaded the xmms-mp3 pack from the website. When I try to install it, I get this: [bonniehandi@localhost ~]$ su Password: [root@localhost bonniehandi]# rpm -Uvh xmms-mp3-1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4.src.rpm warning: xmms-mp3-1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4.src.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID a109b1ec 1:xmms-mp3 warning: user machbuild does not exist - using root warning: group machbuild does not exist - using root ########################################### [100%] warning: user machbuild does not exist - using root warning: group machbuild does not exist - using root [root@localhost bonniehandi]# |
1) The missing gpg key is easy to fix:
rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY 2)Then follow the configuration information for livna.org and install livna-release-4-0.lvn.5.4.noarch.rpm as described here: http://rpm.livna.org/configuration.html (There will even be an option in FireFox to install it when you download it.) 3) Then run: yum install xmms* ( or “yum install xmms-mp3”) Keywords: FC4 xmms mp3 livna |
xmms-mp3-1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4.src.rpm is a source rpm, which only contains source code and rpm spec etc to build a binary rpm.
yum is an excellent tool as above mentioned, make good use of it. |
Thanks. I didn't have the livna repository. So that just solved my puzzle, I was wondering why everyone told me to use yum, when yum search xmms-mp3 didn't return a result.

“yum search xmms-mp3" returns “xmms-mp3.i386 1.2.10-0.lvn.3.4" on one of my FC4 systems.
Try looking for anything in livna: yum list available *.lvn.* That should return a long list of packages. If it finds nothing and no errors messages occur, then it tends to indicate that livna has not been added as a yum source. Did you install the livna-release package as is described on the configuration page under “FC4/Yum”? That adds /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo as a yum source. |
Also have a look at yumex (yum install yumex) It's a graphical frontend for yum and will give you a complet listing of available installed and updateable packages + package info and a very easy way to enable/disable repos.
