VLC plug-in for Mo´zilla for Bonzai3.1??

rayesteq · 08-19-2004, 09:47 AM

Hii everybody!!!
I want to install a media plug in for mozilla on Bonzai 3.1 but I 've met some problems

I Add

deb http

//)download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian woody main

to my /etc/apt/sources.list,

run apt-get update, and
apt-get install vlc mozilla-plugin-vlc

(these are the exact instructions what the Videolan.org web page says)

==> And There became unmet
dependencies.

: Depends:libdvdplay0 but it is not going to be installed
: Depends:llibdvdread2 but is not to be installable
: Depends:libxosd0 but is not to be installable
: Depends:ttf-thryomanes but is not to be installable

So I start to install the packages one by one....

libdvdplay0 depends libdvdread2 so

When I jump "libdvdread2" , to install===>

*apt-get install libdvdread2

I got this message

-"Package libdvdread2 has no avaiable version,but exist in database never
uploaded,has been obsolated or is not avaible with the contents of the
sources.list
E:Package libdvdread2 has no istallation candidate"-

So if this package is exists how can I upload it.???Do I have to change the
"sources.list" file to mirror another version of Bonzai??

Thank You

Are you sure that you are using the right sources.list entry. That package is for woody and it looks like you do not have an entry in the sources.list for it.

Code:

>$ apt-cache search libdvdread
gstreamer-dvd - DVD plugin for GStreamer
libdvdread3 - Simple foundation for reading DVDs
libdvdread3-dev - Simple foundation for reading DVDs
ogle - DVD player with support for DVD menus
ogle-mmx - DVD player with support for DVD menus
gstreamer0.8-dvd - DVD plugin for GStreamer
cpdvd - transfer a DVD title to your harddisk

>$ apt-cache policy libdvdread3
libdvdread3:
  Installed: 0.9.4-5
  Candidate: 0.9.4-5
  Version Table:
 *** 0.9.4-5 0
        990 http://ftp.de.debian.org testing/main Packages
        600 http://ftp.de.debian.org unstable/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

So change the line you have put in the sources.list to either sarge or sid depending on whichever of those you are using (cat /etc/apt/apt.conf to find out) and reinstall the packages (apt-get update then apt-get install --reinstall vlc mozilla-plugin-vlc) and it should work better than you have now.

Code:

>$ cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
APT::Default-Release "testing";
APT::Get::Show-Versions "true";
APT::Cache-Limit 10000000;
Apt::Get::Purge;
APT::Clean-Installed;
