This is a general problem with PLF reps and the way urpmi handles biarch. The PLF x86_64 rpms are often not in sync with i586 rpms, thus urpmi tries to install the newer i586 ones even if they have dependencies on unavailable packages. I'm going to rebuild all new versions to x86_64 repositories today, thus fixing this particular problem. In the meantime, you can try installing the x86_64 version of vlc-plugin-mad manually. The only permanent & good solution to this problem is having some sort of automated or semi-automated system to rebuild PLF packages for x86_64. -- Anssi Hannula _______________________________________________ PLF-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://www.zarb.org/mailman/listinfo/plf-discuss
