The vlc at > freshrpms is much older than the one at livna. One more try today. The vlc at freshrpms may be older, but some of its dependencies at freshrpms are seen as _newer_ by RPM due to how RPM version comparison works. E.g. the "0.0.0 greater than 0" case mentioned before. That's why you run into dependency problems. It is not enough to just disable a repo in your yum config files, you also need to erase packages installed from that repo. And explicit execution of "yum --enablerepo=..." for cherry-picking packages is only for people who know what they are doing. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
