Mozilla required?

[Miro]

Hi,

on my Fedora Core 3 Installation, the VLC requires the mozilla 1.7.3 package which was not installed on my system. Shouldn't it work also with the pre-installed firefox i have?

Greetings,
Miro

No answer from me, just more questions :p

Indeed at installation stage I also received complains about missing packages, mozilla as you Miro but also a couple of others.
mozilla.i386 and fribidi.386 were quite easy to find/get but for the others I find it a bit trickier. Below I put the output coming from the remaining rpms I don't manage to get installed. For the missing(?) libcdio.so libiso9660.so and libltdl.so I'm a bit puzzled cause they appear to be there in /usr/lib (actually for libcdio e.g. I have libcdio.so.3.0.0 as shared library and libcdio.so.3 linking to it, same for libiso9660). Any idea of what package those libs are supposed to come with?

I'm running FC3 with gnome 2.8.0.
Let me know if it rings a bell to someone. 10x

Just to summarize and clarify my previous post:

VLC runs but it needed for me:
- manual installation of
* mozilla.386
* fribidi.386
* sysfsutils.i386
- installing the rpms individually
- not to care for now about the following packages
* cdinfo-0.71-0.i386.rpm
* imlib2-1.1.2-2.1.fc3.fr.i386
* libvcd-0.7.20-3.i386.rpm
* vcdimager-0.7.20-1.1.vlc.i386.rpm
* vcdimager-0.7.20-3.i386.rpm
* vcdimager-libvcd-0.7.20-1.1.vlc.i386.rpm

Best regards,
Keep up the great work VLC team!
