Hi John, & other,
Thank you very much for your reply.
I did try to use atrpms. After installing vlc, the system keep
asking
me to update a few libs and when I did it and got following
errors. The
vlc is working fine with my system at the moment. I don't want to
remove the repos epel and rpmforge from my system. Do I really
need to
get these updates done? If don't, how can these update messages be
stopped coming? Or, should --skip-broken be used to work around as
suggested?
Thanks,
-Daniel.
You now have a mixed set of packages; I warned you about that. I
don't think you need to remove the other repos, but you ought to try
disabling them during the installation process. Todd's script looks
as if it will do that - although you might now need to reinstall
rather than upgrade - but other conflicts may emerge. I shall
probably be working with variants of that script to reconfigure my
Fedora box, but my experience of mixing these repos is limited.

> Thanks John. I didn't realise that I have already got a mixed set of
packages. What I tried to do now is that I remove the vlc package and
then reinstall it with
sudo yum --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=atrpms install vlc
The installation is okay, but the Security update message still come.

How can these 4 updates be stopped?

Your last post came direct to me and didn't go to the list. I still
haven't found the best way to reply on this list, but please check
before hitting send.
Note: I need to heed my own advice here. Resending to list.
And I suspect that this list, like most others that I use, prefers
'bottom posting', so I've changed that.
I have just spent the morning moving my Fedora 17 box from an ATrpms
base to rpmfusion; it still has unresolved problems. I recently did the
same with my SL6 laptop. You have chosen to go the other way, so I
can't easily compare what we see.
Your 'vlc requires' messages may be looking for packages from
ATrpms-testing, which your command line above won't have enabled - you
omitted a *. The name doesn't mean what it says; it just marks
packages that may change RHEL functionality. The others may be from
rpmfusion and you may be able to remove them by rpm -e if you don't need
them elsewhere. I don't think I can offer any more help. Good luck.
John P
