I'm trying to install a package called dvd::rip, and i'm told the rpm is at the plf repository. How can I add that to the list of sources? I know there wass a website that would tell me how to do that, but I can't remember where it is...
Unless somebody knows where I can find the RPM for dvd::rip...
I see a file by this name:
Video-DVDRip-0.97.6-1plf.i586.rpm
EDIT: From Mandriva LE 2005...
[root@linux ~]# urpmi --test VIDEO-DVDRip
To satisfy dependencies, the following 15 packages are going to be installed (20 MB):
Video-DVDRip-0.52.3-1plf.i586
fping-2.4b2-6mdk.i586
liba52dec0-0.7.4-6mdk.i586
libavifile0.7-0.7.43-3mdk.i586
libaviplayavcodec0.7-0.7.43-3plf.i586
libdvdread3-0.9.4-5mdk.i586
libfaad2_0-2.1-0.20050201.0.1.102plf.i586
libfame0.9_1-0.9.1-5plf.i586
libffmpeg0-0.4.9-0.pre1.4mdk.i586
liblame0-3.96.1-1plf.i586
libquicktime0-0.9.4-3mdk.i586

perl-Event-1.04-1mdk.i586
perl-libintl-perl-1.11-3mdk.i586
transcode-1.0.0-0.beta2.2plf.i586
Is this OK? (Y/n)

Did you ad a contrib source while you were at EasyURPMI?
PLF site says:
Ensure you also have the 'community contribs' among your urpmi medias, as many PLF packages depend on these packages.

contribs are indeed listed, but it doesn't say community. Where is that in the zarb site so I can add it?
My "/etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg" lists Installation source (the install DVD), plf-free, plf-nonfree, update source, and contrib. Since you have the free version you may need a main source for packages not included.
I am assuming my "--test" run found the dependant packages somewhere there.

What sources are in your urpmi.cfg? I am guessing there should be no reason you cannot add what is needed.
I had to run "urpmi.update -a" before my "--test" run ran sucessfully.

What about copying your urpmi.cfg file?
We are running different versions. Making sure you have sources that work for the catagories I mentioned in my previous post should be all you need.

Thats just it, according to urpmi everything is installed and it still won't let me get it.
I ran urpmi.update -a and I still get:

Installation is possible
Looking in the contrib directory of a Mandriva mirror I find perl-Gtk2-Ex-FormFactory-0.57-1mdk.noarch.rpm while the error says you need greater than or equal to 0.58.
I guess that is the problem.
I am not sure options like forcing the install or using a cooker 0.58 version are good ideas.
I guess I would consider using the force option first (check man urpmi). Not sure what to advise from here. Sorry.
