I've found each has their good and bad points, so I switch depending on
my mood.

 Greetings everyone!
 
 I have a camera which has the option of producing .avi movie files.  I also
 have some movie DVDs I'd like to play.  Some Web searching turned up
 cinelerria.  There is an .rpm package at
 aleron.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/heroines/cinelerra-1.2.0-1.i386.rpm
 but that has become a quagmire.
 
 The short question is: are there any other packages I can use?
 
 For those of you wo might be interested why cinelerra didn't work, here
 are excerpts from my log.
 
 Oh, and also, is is safe to purge the package that I forced?
 
 Thanks and regards

It is strange why an old package like libpng12-0_1.2.5.0-7 should depend
on a newer package libc6 2.3.2.ds1-4 than we have on the system
(2.2.5-11.5).  It seems like the newer version should work. The
installed version of zlib1g is newer (1:1.1.4-1.0woody0) than what is
required (1:1.2.1) so it should work. Let's be brave.

So it looks like the --force had no effect.  Well, that's not true:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Images/Us/Lilibet/AtHome/2004$ cinelerra
cinelerra: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared 
object file: No such file or directory

It looks like this whole cinelerra business is a bust.

I saw on the Debian website that a request to make a cinelerra package has
been pending for a couple of years.

My favorite is mplayer. It is just an awesome package and can play
every video format I can think of. Add the following line to
/etc/apt/sources.list and install the corresponding packagewhich
matches with your architecture.

deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ unstable main

Everything should be fine once you install it. If you have trouble
getting the movie in full screen, check the -vo option in the manual
page and choose a different output plugin.

Thank you.  Just what I'm looking for.  One hint to others who might read
this:  Make sure of your distribution.  For me the line is

deb ftp://ftp.nerim.net/debian-marillat/ stable main
