You appear to be quick to dismiss it for what I consider very flimsy reasoning that in reality amounts to your preferred methods. >From what I can gather that failed url came about by using yum and the RPM supplied by RPMFusion Well I have had no url problem by using the RPMFusion supplied for Fedora 16/17 x64 configuration RPM and you have. It also appears that this does not appear to be a problem for the vast majority of users. So what harm is there in trying a different approach? It is certainly possible the RPM you downloaded has been corrupted, and if it was a problem from RPMFusion I think many more people would be having your url problem. If all else fails RPMFusion provides links to their repositories, as well as the required urls so you could set them up manually. Well, all the best, and I hope you resolve the problem, and better still discover what caused it. cpp4ever > > > -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
