Hi Diego,
I don't understand your mail. What I talked about was a repo for CentOS
Linux. As we don't use Macs here I have no idea how the installation on
Macs could be improved. I guess Macports or something like this would be
the way to go.

Hi,
a while ago Lars Kiesow posted a desciption on how to create a Red Hat / CentOS
Matterhorn repository containing all needed 3rd party libraries and some
Matterhorn packages [1]. I asked him to create such a repository as it makes
the installation of Matterhorn much easier, faster and reliable.
To explain it more clearly: to install Matterhorn you would no longer need to
compile all the 3rd-party tools on your own and build Matterhorn with Maven,
you simply would execute these commands and a few minutes later you have
Matterhorn up and running.
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
curl -O
http://matterhorn-repo-server.tld/matterhorn_3rd-party_repo/matterhorn_3rd-party.repo
yum install rpmforge-release.x86_64
yum install opencast-matterhorn
# You can add additional language packs for tesseract like this:
yum install tesseract-langpack-deu.noarch tesseract-langpack-deu-frak.noarch
From my point of view this sounds to good and now I need to come to the
downside:
ffmpeg is an important 3rd-party tool for Matterhorn. Because of the patents on
certain codecs (MPEG2, H.264, MP3, ...) it is unclear how ffmpeg can be
distributed in a binary version. Because of this I did find someone willing to
host the repo with the binaries yet.
Currently you can setup the repo on your own based on the sources, like Lars
explains it [1]. If you setup the repo once everyone who knows the URL can use
the repo as explained above.
We here in Osnabrück would be willing to update and maintain the repo build
scripts, but I am unfortunaly not allowed to host on our servers for the public.
So my question is if someone else is willing to host the binary repo, to make
it easier for all to install (and update) Matterhorn?
Thanks
Rüdiger
