All,
I'm sure this is a dumb question, but I downloaded the mplayer rpm's
from livna last night and tried to install them. I get the following
dependency issues:
error: Failed dependencies:
libartsc.so.0 is needed by mplayer-1.0-0.46.pre8.lvn5.i386

Where does one obtain these libraries, or updates, or whatever is
needed?
----
make life easy on yourself...
yum localinstall mplayer*
and yum will use fedora-core/fedora-updates to resolve, download,
install the dependent packages
Actually, make life /truly/ easy on yourself and install the
livna yum repo config into your yum config directory, then just
delete the rpms you downloaded, and type:
yum install mplayer
... which will install mplayer and all of its dependencies, including
those which are only available at livna. If you try the above suggested
localinstall and the livna repo is *not* configured already, then the
install will fail as soon as it is unable to find libraries that are
only available in the livna repo which mplayer requires.
