FWIW, if compatibility with EPEL for this particular issue at this particular point in time comes at the cost of no more updates to vlc and probably other packages on RHEL5: I vote for not updating libmodplug so we can still have the occasional update to EL5 packages. I take care of several home systems still running centos 5, and updates to multimedia stuff is often welcome! And there will always be incompatibilities with EPEL anyways (what happens if epel decides to update libmodplug again in a month?). just my opinion. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.repoforge.org/mailman/listinfo/users
