Yum install xine fails; unable to satisfy dependencies

2004-04-19, 5:35 pm

Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Base
Server: Livna.org Fedora Compatible Packages (stable)
Server: Fedora Core 1 - i386 - Released Updates
Finding updated packages
Downloading needed headers
Resolving dependencies
.......Unable to satisfy dependencies
Package xine-lib needs libaa.so.1, this is not available.
Package xine-lib needs libasound.so.2, this is not available.
Package xine-lib needs libasound.so.2(ALSA_0.9), this is not available.
Package xine-lib needs libasound.so.2(ALSA_0.9.0rc4), this is not available.
Package xine needs libaa.so.1, this is not available.

.... Now what?

I tried to look for the libs in rpmfind.org and discovered
that a zillion dependencies need to be resolved. Libalsa2 needs
libalsa-data. But libalsa-data needs libalsa2. No way to bypass this. What
do I do?

So, you didn't notice the bold text in a red box on the
http://rpm.livna.org/ page?
" RPM.Livna.org is not a standalone repository
You must use rpm.livna.org with
Fedora.us repository"

download and install package called apt-get
after it is installed run the command line
apt-get install xine
it will download and install xine and all needed codecs...

good luck.
