okay so i was having this problem with my yum install of vlc earlier, but i got it installed by using:
Code:
yum --disablerepo=livna install vlc -y
and vlc works fine. BUT NOW when i try to do a yum update i get this:
Code:
[root@dustyfedora ~]# yum update

[root@dustyfedora ~]#
so i searched for some other threads about this which provided links to the pre-2.5 package of faad2, but either the links were broken or didn't work when i tried to install them. i'm sure i'm doing something wrong or missing something, but at this point i have no idea where to go, and i'd really rather not have this problem everytime i need to update packages.
if somebody can point me in the right direction i'd be more than happy. thanks
