Let me quote from https://lists.linux.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum "A list for the discussion of the Yum rpm updater." Thus I am on topic. I also posted the entire list of the output of yum, let me do so again: Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: atrpms Redhat Packages (stable) Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - Base Server: Red Hat Linux 9 base Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - freshrpms Server: Legacy utilities for Red Hat Linux 9 Server: Livna.org Compatible Packages (stable) Server: My Local Yum Repository Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - Updates Server: Red Hat Linux 9 updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers Resolving dependencies .......Unable to satisfy dependencies Package gstreamer-plugins needs libfame-0.9.so.0, this is not available. So, as I understand it, libfame-0.9.so.0 isn't on my linux server. And as the dependency resolution part of yum didn't work I would have to suggest that it's not on the repository - or indeed any of the repositories listed. Wait, is that a complete list of all the repositories I have listed? Oh my. It is. Wait, that's probably not enough. Here I'll list the config file at the end as well, as anyone who wasn't too sure and REALLY wished to be constructive would've asked for. Please, unless someone has something constructive to say. Kindly SHUT THE FUCK UP - you have nothing to offer. Thanks TheFinn.
