It tells me that your mplayer package verifies fine, which =>means that the executables has not been tampered with. Examining the =>executable I see that it depends on libgpm.so.2 via libaa.so.1: => =>$ ldd /usr/lib/libaa.so.1|grep gpm => libgpm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgpm.so.2 (0x00273000) =>$ rpm -q --whatprovides libaa.so.1 =>aalib-libs-1.4.0-0.16.rc5.fc10.i386 => =>Can you reproduce that? I assume that either you've got a wrong =>aalib-libs package or one in /usr/local that overrides the system's one. =>Right? Bingo. A yum update aalib-libs fixed the problem. Now I have a couple of questions: *) "I see that it depends on libgpm.so.2 via libaa.so.1" What did you mean by that? How did you know that there was a dependancy on libgpm because of libaa-libs? *) Is it an installation bug that mplayer was incorrectly updated when I went from F9 to F10? Should it not have *removed* mplayer instead if libaa-libs was not a part of the install dvd? -- Time flies like the wind. Fruit flies like a banana.
