Am trying to install MPlayer on Suse 9.3. Have gone to Packman site and downloaded the requisite files. Whenever I try to install the RPMs (w32codec-all or libdca or toolame) using YAST the following happens.
1. Install appears to go normally 2. At the 100% mark, I get a message indicating the RPM has failed to install 3. Details show "fatal region error detected"
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Sounds like a corrupt rpm database. I'd suggest a full backup, then try rpm --rebuilddb as the root user. Don't skip the backup, as there is no guarantee that the rebuild will be able to completely fix the problem. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
