Today I noticed that Packman has an updated version of Kaffeine so I tried to install it just as I did for Mplayer. Unfortunately it did not work.
I've noted that packman folks obviously do not run x86-64. Updating kaffeine from packman doesn't work due to broken dependencies. Yast & apt state that:
'xine-mad' conflict Required by: 'kaffeine requires xine-mad' Conflicts with: 'libxine1 obsoletes xine-mad'
Okay, this is a) broken statement: if libxine1 obsoletes xine-mad, how come it's a conflict? If it's really obsoleted, that specific requires entry should be skipped. b) extremely broken usability-wise
Simple solution, do not update libxine1 and you won't get the conflict. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
