[Avifile]Newbie with dependancy problems

[Nilesh Hira]

Hi. I've got a problem. You see I recently converted over to linux (with only minimal problems) due to hearing about apt and having to try it for myself. However I've found that not all my dependency problems have been solved - so I resorted to downloading the RPM's from sourceforge.
I still can't install avifile due to dependency problems. When trying to install avifile (rpm) I get dependancy warnings -
libdivxdecore.so.0
libdivxencore.so.0
libvorbisfile.so.3
I figured I'd work on one problem at a time so I found a tarball containing libdivxdecore which I managed to install sucessfully (to my utter shock and surprise) and compiled it even. The files libdivxdecore and libdivxencore are now in my /usr/lib directory but I'm still getting the same error message from RPM.
Can someone please suggest a (constructive - abuse bites) remedy for my problems?

-Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nevyn.
