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

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.

Sure but you don't bother to do what you were asked to do.

My speculation, you have vlc and packages from some other
repository, not livna. freshrpms? If you had listed the files, we
probably could figure it out.

enable freshrpms repository again and try to update

Craig

Hi Craig. I just suggested enabling the freshrpms repo again ( that's
on Karls pulseaudio thread) and trying an install of VLC, especially
as x264 on my F8 with freshrpms enabled is showing as being
maintained by Matthias Saou (freshrpms), and VLC is working fine.

The problem is that 3rd party repo's don't work well together. The
intention of the repo maintainers is that there should be consistency
of the package versions available, but this doesn't seem to work out
in reality, resulting in conflicts.

Karls obviously experiencing this. I thought he'd got his VLC from
Livna, but maybe not due to the problems he's having.

----
feel free to step in.

he has yet to do what I asked him to do so it's clear that I'm not
going to be of much use.

Craig

Well I don't particularly want to step in,

----
you just did...
----

but do think that Karl needs try
installing VLC from the freshrpms repo, rather than the Livna one.

With VLC installed from Freshrpms, this is what the x264 package shows.

Another 2¢ worth of perhaps useless info.

----
pay attention...he's got packages apparently from both livna and
freshrpms

I wish you luck

Craig

Come on Craig. Play fair. There's no Livna stuff there. It's either from
Fedora or Freshrpms. There is no Livna repo in my /etc/apt/sources.list

indefinite article. When I said "he's got packages apparently from

attention and good luck
