RPMforge - cant find SDL
I am trying to install ffmpeg on an amazon linux ami (centOS red hat) and using yum with rpmforge repo added. I cant install ffmpeg because of a dependency error:
Error: Package: ffmpeg-0.6.1-1.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
Requires: libSDL-1.2.so.0()(64bit)
So I search in the repo for SDL:
yum list sdl* ==>
SDL and/or SDL-devel do not seem to be in the repository, any tips for resolving this dependency error would be much appreciated. I am a noob to linux, so try to dumb it down for meCode:Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de Available Packages SDL_Pango.x86_64 0.1.2-1.el5.rf dag SDL_Pango-devel.x86_64 0.1.2-1.el5.rf dag SDL_gfx.x86_64 2.0.22-1.el5.rf dag SDL_gfx-devel.x86_64 2.0.22-1.el5.rf dag SDL_image.x86_64 1.2.10-1.el5.rf dag SDL_image-devel.x86_64 1.2.10-1.el5.rf dag SDL_mixer.x86_64 1.2.7-1.el5.rf dag SDL_mixer-devel.x86_64 1.2.7-1.el5.rf dag SDL_net.x86_64 1.2.7-1.el5.rf dag SDL_net-devel.x86_64 1.2.7-1.el5.rf dag SDL_ttf.x86_64 2.0.8-1.el5.rf dag SDL_ttf-devel.x86_64 2.0.8-1.el5.rf dag sdlmame.x86_64 0.115-1.el5.rf dag

The SDL root package should be in the standard CentOS repository. Anyway, here is a link to the RPM, which you can get here: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/centos/5.5...el5.x86_64.rpm
If you need the devel package, you can get it from the location specified: Index of /pub/centos/5.5/os/x86_64Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

Ah ok, thanks. Is there a way I can include the standard centOS repository in a .repo file as I did with rpmforge so I can use yum update and yum install? Like so:
/etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo:
Code:### Name: RPMforge RPM Repository for RHEL 5 - dag ### URL: ... [rpmforge] name = RHEL $releasever - RPMforge.net - dag baseurl = ... mirrorlist = ... #mirrorlist = ... enabled = 1 protect = 0 gpgkey = ... gpgcheck = 1
