Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 Version: 0.9.9a Vendor: Dag Apt Repository, http://dag.wieers.com/apt/ Release: 7.el5.rf Build date: Tue Dec 7 12:18:14 2010 Group: Applications/Multimedia Build host: lisse.hasselt.wieers.com Size: 58242559 Source RPM: vlc-0.9.9a-7.el5.rf.src.rpm Packager: Dag Wieers
vlc as client for multimedia files, but ran into some dependency errors with libraries libdvdread.so.3 and libcucul.so.0. Installation was https://gkoenig.wordpress.com/2010/01/08/install-vlc-on-centos-5-4-libdvdread-so-3-libcucul-missing/ initially started by
yum install vlc
but http://grokbase.com/t/centos/centos/1185s641tg/how-to-install-vlc-on-centos-6 finished with errors, described above. I wondered why the installation cannot find the libraries, since they are installed.
ll /usr/lib | grep libdvd*
ll /usr/lib | grep libcu*
showed me both libraries. I tried to manually set error package a symbolic link for libdvdread.so.3 (since there only was a link for xxx.so.4), but with no success. The solution of this problem was to resolve the mixture of libraries installed from different repositories. In this case the libdvdread from epel and rpmforge caused the confusion. You can check this (if both repositories error package vlc-0.9.9a-7.el5.rf.x86_64 are enabled) by
yum provides libdvdread
Both repositories offer a libdvdread, but completely different. Therefore I performed the following steps to get a working vlc installation. deinstall current libdvdread and libcucul
yum erase libdvdread
yum erase libcaca
yum clean all
install vlc and dependencies from rpmforge
yum --disablerepo \* --enablerepo base,updates,rpmforge install vlc
finished….installed 25 packages. Check again which repository provided the libdvdread, just to be sure😉
yum list libdvdread
prints the following output (on my box)
...
Installed Packages
libdvdread.i386 0.9.7-1.el5.rf installed
Available Packages
libdvdread.i386 4.1.3-1.el5 epel
Besides this, it is a preferable method to use priorities in your yum repositorities in /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo files to avoid a confusion about different versions of files installed from different repositories. Details about yum and priorities here any co
