<FWIW> Last night I successfully installed mplayer on FC2, and want to post the list of rpms I installed to support this. Someone else might find the info useful. Most of the list was found on the Internet via a google search. I'm not sure that all were needed, but installed them all anyway. One rpm I needed was not listed there but was called out during the installation as a dependency. All were downloaded from freshrpms.org. Kernel info: [chuck@aviary mplayer]$ uname -a Linux aviary 2.6.6-1.435.2.1 #1 Wed Jun 30 15:29:30 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux [chuck@aviary mplayer]$ ls aalib-1.4.0-5.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm faad2-2.0-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm lame-3.96-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libdvdcss-1.2.8-4.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libdvdplay-1.0.1-4.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libdvdread-0.9.4-5.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libfame-0.9.1-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libmad-0.15.1b-2.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm libpostproc-1.0-0.10.pre4.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm (not in original list) lirc-0.6.6-2.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm lzo-1.08-3.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm mplayer-1.0-0.10.pre4.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm mplayer-fonts-1.1-2.fr.noarch.rpm mplayer-skins-1.4-1.fr.noarch.rpm xvidcore-1.0.1-1.1.fc2.fr.i386.rpm Since I did not know what order of installation was needed, I just used a baby script to install whatever would, then run it again and again until all the dependencies were finally met. Took about four passes, plus one more when finally I downloaded libpostproc. example of script... # for FILE in `ls -1 *.rpm` > do > echo $FILE > rpm -i $FILE > done . . . # </FWIW> Chuck Sterling
