We need to support a variety of applications on our 3D scientific
visualisation client workstations, running SL6x x86-64 using the
proprietary Nvidia 3D Xwindows drivers (and Nvidia CUDA5 along with OpenCL).
When I installed rpmfusion for vlc production current (2.0.6) for IA-32
on my laptop, there were no issues. When I attempt to install the same
thing here, I find:

I have found:
http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/
but nothing for live-2012 (nor my guess of live2012) that seems relevant
to this issue.
I am not asking for specifics on debugging -- however, I do not
recognize either live555 nor live-2012 except from the above search
yields -- indicating that live555 provides a "set of C++ libraries for
multimedia streaming, using open standard protocols (RTP/RTCP, RTSP,
SIP)" -- that makes sense for an application such as vlc. Does anyone
know anything about these "packages"? Will one suffice for the other
and thus a manual install with a force nodeps override will in fact work?
Technical question: for a .so file or an executable, ldd will inform as
to the required dependencies. What is the functional equivalent for a
rpm file to ldd, preferably an equivalent that will list both the
dependencies in terms of actual files (e.g., foobar.so.3.7.19-mnj) and
(hopefully) the RPMs from a particular repository (e.g., SL, rpmfusion,
etc., depending upon the distribution that supplied the RPM) that supply
such files?
Otherwise, I am back to the issue of finding the "non-free" and other
CODECs needed for vlc current production release built from source (not
SRPM, but source).
Any information would be appreciated.
