I installed 'libvpx1' to my existing installation of vlc and I can now at least view the downloaded YouTube videos which I couldn't view before. I have yet to try out viewing a Bd movie - will report the result.
Sorry to say that a whole application collapses and becomes useless simply because of *one* tiny (1.7MB) file?!
Basil, To get around this problem I used to set the priority of the videolan repository and the kde3 repo slightly lower than default (99). Like this: # zypper mr -p 90 videolan I was able to avoid packman/videolan conflicts. Apparently the zypper magic gives priority to repos with lower priority numbers. So if you have packman at 99 and vidolan at 90, then zypper logic should use the videolan packages -- as long as they have the same name as the packman packages (rpm logic should handle any conflict if the spec files were correctly written) I cannot recall if setting 'solver.allowVendorChange = true' is required in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf to have priority function correctly, but it is something that I have always done. Others will have to chime in on this issue. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
