Best way to get RPM's using Drake?

LinuZ · 08-06-2003, 12:19 AM

Hey, i've been trying to install MPlayer, and its crazy with all these dependencies! It has so many, and i can't even find half of them. I look at www.freshmeat.net and www.rpmfind.net .

Is there an easier and better way to do this? Its driving me nuts

Thanks a lot,
Matt

Theres a circular dependency between 3 packages that u need in oider to install a working mplayer. You can get more information from this website under the heading 'What to download",

LinuZ, you should be able to find MPlayer on cd 3, I also recommend you check out http://plf.zarb.org The urpmi setup section is excellent and helps no end with dependency problems.
