Hi gang!
I'm trying to update my videolan client (0.8.4a-4.el4.rf) to the latest
0.8.6 version. I see that Dag has a 0.8.6 for EL4 (I'm running Centos 4.4)
but when I do "yum update videolan-client" it says there's nothing
to
update.
When I remove the videolan client than do "yum install
videolan-client"
it insists on trying to install the 0.8.4 version:
============================================================================
Package Arch Version Repository Size
============================================================================Installing:
videolan-client i386 0.8.4a-4.el4.rf rpmforge 5.4 M
Transaction Summary
============================================================================Install
1 Package(s)
Update 0 Package(s)
Remove 0 Package(s)
Total download size: 5.4 M
Is this ok [y/N]: n
I can't figure out why it's not installing the 0.8.6 version that is
clearly visible at Dag's repository at this page:
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/vlc/
where we see, among other things:
vlc-0.8.6b-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm
Anybody got a clue?
Thanks!

Don't know what is the cause of your problem. It might be that a yum index file may not be complete? You might want to try yum clean all and see what happens. Akemi

Perhaps it is appearing as vlc, or you should switch to rpmforge. I installed these from rpmforge: [john at localhost download]$ rpm -qa |grep vlc vlc-0.8.6b-1.el5.rf vlc-devel-0.8.6b-1.el5.rf [john at localhost download]$

I see that Dag has a 0.8.6 for EL4the 0.8.4a-4.el4.rf videolan-client package at: http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/videolan-client/ is called exactly that, "videolan-client". ...> I can't figure out why it's not installing the 0.8.6 version that is > clearly visible at Dag's repository at this page: > > http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/vlc/ > > where we see, among other things: > > vlc-0.8.6b-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm > > Anybody got a clue?Yes, that package is called "vlc". "yum install vlc" :-) /Peter> Thanks!-------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
