ok im trying to install mplayer thats wher this all began, when i try to install mplayer it says
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -i mplayer-1.0-0.16.pre7.1.fc3.i386.rpm
warning: mplayer-1.0-0.16.pre7.1.fc3.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID e42d547b
error: Failed dependencies:
libxvidcore.so.4 is needed by mplayer-1.0-0.16.pre7.1.fc3.i386
ok thats great but when i search for libxvidcore.so.4 this is what i get
[root@localhost ~]# whereis libxvidcore.so.4
libxvidcore.so: /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so.4 /usr/lib/libxvidcore.so
ok so that stumped me so i read about updating yum.config so i did and i cant post the contents cause it says i cant post url's or something to that effect but anyway, so i used yum to install mplayer and it says
[root@localhost ~]# yum install mplayer
Repository base already added, not adding again

You have enabled checking of packages via GPG keys. This is a good thing.
However, you do not have any GPG public keys installed. You need to download
the keys for packages you wish to install and install them.
You can do that by running the command:
rpm --import public.gpg.key
For more information contact your distribution or package provider.

so i ran the command and this is what it says
[root@localhost ~]# rpm --import public.gpg.key
error: public.gpg.key: import read failed.

what should i do now?

You need to know where the GPG key is.

For example if you have a repository for LIVNA you would issue the following:

Code:

rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY

And that will import the public GPG key for LIVNA so that you may use that repository.

The repositories I use are LIVNA and Freshrpms.

To get setup for Freshrpms just go here:
http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrp...hrpms-release/Download and install this rpm: freshrpms-release-1-1.fc.fr.noarch.rpm

And Freshrpms will be setup.

To setup LIVNA do the above to get the GPG then do the following(as root):

Code:

cd /etc/yum.repos.d
vi livna.repo

In that text file type the following:

Code:

[livna-stable]
name=Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (stable)
baseurl= http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.stable
gpgcheck=1

[livna-unstable]
name=Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (unstable)
baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.unstable
gpgcheck=1

[livna-testing]
name=Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (testing)
baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS.testing
gpgcheck=1

Finally you should import the local GPG key Fedora gives out so you can use their repositories. Issue this command:

Code:

rpm --import /usr/share/rhn/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora

That's should do it! Have fun!
