Im using fedora 7 and I want to install vlc (vlc-client):

but all these missing dependencies are in my system!!!
what is wrong??

can you prove they are in the system? (e.g. rpm -qa | grep faad2) note they'll need to have been installed by rpm and be the exact version required.

Waliuz · 06-23-2007, 03:46 AM

Okay that is very odd:

[root@i-G5 ~]# rpm -qa | grep faad2
faad2-2.5-2.fc7
[root@i-G5 ~]# rpm -qa | grep libx264
[root@i-G5 ~]# rpm -qa | grep libx264.so.54
[root@i-G5 ~]#

[root@i-G5 ~]# locate libx264.so.54
[root@i-G5 ~]#

/usr/share/doc/faad2-2.5/README.linux
/usr/share/doc/faad2-2.5/TODO
[root@i-G5 ~]#

but here is where i understand enything....:

[root@i-G5 ~]# yum remove x264.i386

Is this ok [y/N]:

the package x264.i386 provides libx264.so.54 but its not registered

(i think)

ok, so the dependency you have is for a version of faad2 LESS than 2.5. you have faad2 2.5 installed, therefore the dependency issue is correct. rpm -qa lists the names of the packages installed, not the files, so faad2 is a package name, but libx264.so.54 is a file name, so won't be shown in that list.

For example this:

---> Package mozilla-vlc.i386 0:0.8.6c-1.lvn7 set to be updated
--> Processing Dependency: libdts.so.0 for package: mozilla-vlc

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libdts.so.0 is needed by package mozilla-vlc
Error: Missing Dependency: libx264.so.54 is needed by package mozilla-vlc

[root@i-G5 ~]# locate libdts.so.0
/usr/lib/libdts.so.0
/usr/lib/libdts.so.0.0.0

[root@i-G5 ~]# locate libx264.so.54
/usr/lib/libx264.so.54
[root@i-G5 ~]#

Can anybody explain for me why yum not finding those libraries in system?

dariussquared · 07-08-2007, 05:30 PM

im getting the same thing--except i seem to, somehow, have libx264.so.55 (instead of libx264.so.54), but not libdts.so.0 (even though libdca--the package that provides libdts.so.0--is installed)

Any suggestions? Thanks

Oay, i've fixed my problem with libx264.so.54, this is in freshrpms reposity, the package x264-0.0.0-0.3.20070529.fc7 from freshrpms provides any needed libraries, im using x264-0-0.8.20061028.lvn7 from livna, this package helped me with libx264.so.54

yum remove x264 -y
yum --disablerepo=freshrpms install x264 -y

now its working for me

yup--I fixed it today by doing the same thing (but by accident--removing and installing things in different orders using yum)

good jorb.

Waliuz · 07-10-2007, 11:49 PM

Thanks

i actualy dont know what for x264-0.0.0-0.3.20070529.fc7 package is...

badshah4evr · 07-18-2007, 02:42 AM

could you kindly elaborate on how you fixed the problem
Thanks

These 3 lines did it for me:

yum remove x264 -y
yum --disablerepo=freshrpms install x264 -y
yum --disablerepo=livna install vlc -y

If livna is not disabled ffmpeg conflicts with ffmpeg-libs (from livna).

Hope it helps.
