Can't install videolan :'|

[hecklar]

Hi all.
I'm trying to install videolan release 0.7.2 on my fedora core2.
I've just followed the little howto find on http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-fedora.html
but when i try to rpm all the stuff i got a "dependence error".

So i've tryied to install it with source code on http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-sources.html
but now i've got a strange error. It says that can't find postprocess.h......but i've installed ffmpeg well.....why this?

Pls help me....i'm going crazy

have you tried using apt-get to install?

if not, add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

rpm http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/2/i386 stable
rpm-src http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/2/i386 stable

then run as root:

apt-get update
apt-get install videolan-client

i got vlc installed by either doing this or doing what the install page told me to but instead of:

rpm -U vlc/* --force

I did:

rpm -i vlc/* --force

I think that command will install even if it hits errors. I was able to run vlc and to stream video from ranttv (http://www.ranttv.com) however I still cannot stream from saltwaterchimp.com, which was my intent.

Hope this helps you (and let me know if you find anything further!)

No this didn't work with me.

Yum seems to get some "rpm errors".
Anyway check your PM
