can't "yum install mplayer" : no libmpcdec.so.3 available

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Just upgraded to 5.4 yesterday morning.  (Kudos to those who did that!)
That's probably irrelevant to this problem:

"yum install mplayer" fails.  Here's what happens:

==================================================
 # yum install mplayer

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
==================================================

Yep, I did run"

# package-cleanup --dupes
Setting up yum
giflib-4.1.3-7.1.el5.1.i386
giflib-4.1.3-7.1.el5_3.1.i386
# rpm -qa |grep giflib
giflib-4.1.3-7.1.el5.1
giflib-4.1.3-7.1.el5_3.1
giflib-devel-4.1.3-7.1.el5_3.1

so erased giflib-4.1.3-7.1.el5.1.i386, but still got the same from yum


==================================================
# package-cleanup --problems
Setting up yum
Reading local RPM database
Processing all local requires
No problems found
==================================================

Maybe removing the above dupes fixed it???  Nope, "yum install mplayer"
still flipped me an error.  So then tried:

==================================================
# yum install --skip-broken mplayer

Packages skipped because of dependency problems:
    mplayer-1.0-0.34.rc1try2.fc6.i386 from freshrpms
    mplayer-fonts-1.1-3.fc.noarch from freshrpms
    nas-1.9.1-2.el5.i386 from epel
==================================================

This looks like it might be the cause:

# rpm -ql libmpcdec
/usr/lib/libmpcdec.so.5
/usr/lib/libmpcdec.so.5.0.2
/usr/share/doc/libmpcdec-1.2.6
... <snip> ...

i.e., the dependency is already installed, but the installed version is
higher than what's requested... or the dependency is misspecified
(libmpcdec.so.3)...(?)

and/or liblirc/liblirc_client and libaudio aren't available (at least in
the repos my yum is set up for.


What to do.. what to do??
