[F9->F10 Upgrade] Stubborn libcaca/xine-lib problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I upgraded my laptop last night, without the aid of the pre-upgrade
package.  No doubt this is the source of at least some of my problem;
that I've been using a mix of repositories is likely another.  Here's
the scoop:

I was able to upgrade, and after disabling one repository (atrpms) I was
able to upgrade *almost* everything.  The problem comes with one
stubborn rpm: libcaca.  When trying to update this, I'm told that
libcucul.so.0 is needed for xine-lib.  OK, so why can't I update
xine-lib?  Because there is no copy in the repository and it wasn't
updated during the upgrade.

I'm told that 'yum list extras' will show me the packages no longer kept
in the current repositories.  Sure enough, xine-lib is not there.  If
the package is no longer provided, though, I would expect that nothing
else would need it.  Below I've enumerated the 41 separate additional
packages that would need to be deinstalled if I were to remove xine-lib,
all but three of which are F10 packages.  I don't understand how these
packages could be F10 software if a library/package upon which they
depend is not offered, and these seem to be rather central.

I can see a few alternatives:
1) Wait for a new xine-lib to come along that will tale care of the issue.
2) Leave libcaca alone.
3) Find some way to "force" the new libcaca package.
4) Deinstall all 42 of those packages, upgrade libcaca, and then
reinstall the packages available.
5) None of above, that I can't think of.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I should handle this one?

Thanks in advance,
 -Don
