Quoting Patrick Shanahan <paka@opensuse.org>:
Packaging has apparently changed for vlc.
If you update to vlc-2.0.6-115.2.x86_64, note that the codecs have been separated and need to be installed, vlc-codecs-2.0.6-115.2.x86_64 or you cannot play broken/restricted/drm'ed music.
No notice or warning is presented :^(
Patrick,
the package is setup in a way that vlc-codecs should be auto-pulled by zypper (or do you happen to have recommended packages disabled?)
Packman is broken, has been broken for a looooooong time http://lists.links2linux.de/pipermail/packman/2011-November/010441.html https://bugs.links2linux.org/browse/PM-4 Notice that nobody else complained. So I don't blame the admins for giving low priority to this... For normal soft dependencies is not so problematic because once the packages are downloaded we don't depend on the repo metadata any more. But inverse soft dependencies are 100% unusable. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
