Where did you get "lidmad" from ?
That's definitely not an RPM for SUSE Linux.
As far as I could see it came from VLC player. Their repository for SuSE 10.2 is
http://download.videolan.org/pub/vlc/0.8.6/SuSE/10.2/i586
There is libmad-0.15.1b-2.0.i586.rpm there.
This is it's "info" (and the same is printed out by rpm -qi libmad):
NAME: libmad
VERSION: 0.15.1b
RELEASE: 2.0
SUMMARY: a high-quality MPEG audio decoder capable of 24-bit output
DISTRIBUTION:
VENDOR:
LICENSE: GPL
PACKAGER: Dominique Leuenberger
GROUP: System/Libraries
OS: linux
ARCH: i586
SOURCE RPM: libmad-0.15.1b-2.0.src.rpm
DESCRIPTION:
libMAD is a high-quality MPEG audio decoder capable of 24-bit output.
It looks like YaST somehow understands that it's the same library. I
saw that kb3 (from PackMan) also needs that library. I installed it
with YaST and have not got any conflict indication.
To check this I selected this amarok-1.4.4-108.guru.suse102@i686 in
YaST, and yes, it installed it without complaining. Now I see both mad
and libmad packages.
I guess it could be dangerous in some situations.
But I do like that YaST allows user to decide how to resolve the
conflict. I thought there could be such option in Smart, but could not
find it.
