Realplayer does also provide a .BIN-version, outside the package management system.

Dear friend,
Dont try with rpm file. because it can have only the binary files, so these file will be needed some dependency. So my suggestion is, just download .bin file and configure and install it.

Hi...
try this command...
rpm -i <filename.rpm>...
when using rpm package you must be logged in as the root user. The "-i" flag in the above command means "install".....

[shtromm]

Yeas, but if there are unresolved dependencies the "real" fun will start, which will not encore with the bin-file, outside the package management system.
