I tried to install the VLC 0.86c in OpenSUSE 10.3, but hit the dependency problem. I can create the repository but could not install from the Software Management of YAST. I made it work in SLED 10.1, but not in 10.3. Any idea? Thank you for your attention.

BTW, my OpenSUSE 10.3 is 64-bit.

Can you be a bit more verbose please? What dependencies are missing?

you can also paste the output of a zypper solver run... that could help as well.

There's no clear message about the dependency, My step is:
Create a record in "Software Repositories" of YAST (following the instruction of installation in SUSE);
Select vlc(0.8.6c) from the "Package Selector" in "Software Management";
It lists a long list of software to be installed under vlc like libxxxx.xx()(64bit) etc;
After accepting, it shows (in Chinese) "Due to lack of dependency, can't install vlc"

I'm afraid if we can't get the whole error message, it will be close to impossible to help.

Try the following: If there comes a message about dependencies, let it do the full test if possible, then cancel. Copy the output here and I'm sure we can sort it out.

Did you try the one-click-install we provide on the website for openSUSE 10.3?

One-click-install works! Followed the memory the way the website shows for the old version. Thank you!
