I bit the bullet and replaced faad2-2.5 with faad2-2.0 on my F7 installation: # rpm -Uvh --oldpackage faad2-2.0-19.20050131.lvn6.x86_64.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:faad2 ########################################### [100%] Now if I upgrade ffmpeg, which it is going to from livna, I still have this problem: # yum update ffmpeg Loading "changelog" plugin Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile livna 100% |=========================| 2.1 kB 00:00 Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package ffmpeg.x86_64 0:0.4.9-0.37.20070503.lvn7 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: libavutil.so.49()(64bit) for package: akode-extras --> Processing Dependency: libavformat.so.51()(64bit) for package: k3b-extras-nonfree --> Processing Dependency: libavutil.so.49()(64bit) for package: ffmpeg --> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes. --> Running transaction check ---> Package ffmpeg-libs.x86_64 0:0.4.9-0.37.20070503.lvn7 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: libdts.so.0()(64bit) for package: ffmpeg-libs --> Processing Dependency: libx264.so.54()(64bit) for package: ffmpeg-libs --> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes. --> Running transaction check ---> Package libdca.x86_64 0:0.0.2-3.lvn7 set to be updated ---> Package ffmpeg-libs.x86_64 0:0.4.9-0.37.20070503.lvn7 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: libx264.so.54()(64bit) for package: ffmpeg-libs --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: libx264.so.54()(64bit) is needed by package ffmpeg-libs I still have this missing dependency about libx264.so.54.
Well ... well... this is strange. The x264 rpm is actually at livna: http://livna-dl.reloumirrors.net/fedora/7/x86_64/x264-0-0.8.20061028.lvn7.x86_64.rpm Somehow, yum is not picking it up, or the x264 rpm perhaps does not "export" the information that it provides libx264.so.54. John
