It is a MAJOR problem. I can't load VLC and I might as well go to
Windows if that is not working. Look back today and you will see the

Can't yum vlc at all.

Thanks for you help. It looks like it might be what is causing the
problem do you think?

what happens if you try...
yum update x264
?

Hi I get this. Odd.

[root@localhost ~]# yum update x264

So this is a real surprise too.
----
Not really... the 20070529.fc7 designation pretty much clinches the fact
that you have installed packages that were never intended for Fedora 8
but it's hard for me to determine how/where you got that from. Livna's
Fedora 7 repository has a much newer version which means that you
probably have more mess than that.
I suppose to see how badly you have things screwed up, you are going to
have to tell it
yum remove x264
and then get a list of what it's going to remove. Whether you say yes to
removing or not is up to you. You might want to put the list of things
yum wants to remove before you say yes or no.
Your call, your machine, your mess
Craig
Sorry Craig there are MANY f7 rpms in f8. It is normal and thought
you would know.
----
If you are referring to the .fc7 designation, yes, I am quite aware of
that.
I forgot that you are inclined to bite the hand feeding you.
Good luck
Craig
I wanted you to know that f7 rpm's are normal on f8. I am seeing
something odd.
[root@localhost ~]# yum install vlc

The yum is not looking for a repo to get this mess. How can this be? I
have removed all livna repos but it does not even use them.
