Hm, I don't have a Tumbleweed system myself, so I can't check, but I maintain 
an xml file on opensuse-community.org which should supposedly feed the Packman 
and the libdvdcss repo into the yast community repositories list.

Maybe I'll ping someone about the issue.

It does exist for Tumbleweed. The repo URL is:

http://opensuse-guide.org/repo/openSUSE_Tumbleweed

The existence of the repo is "announced" in YaST community repositories and in 
the codec 1-click ;-) 

It has nothing to do with Packman though.

It still exists for 42.2 both on gwdg.de and inode.at:
http://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/packman/suse/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/Essentials/
x86_64/
http://packman.inode.at/suse/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/Essentials/x86_64/

Is 42.2 just behind on rebuild or mirrors not synced? As the maintainer 
opensuse-guide.org and the codec 1-click installers it's nice to know if the 
package will 'disappear' or not.

Please just do "zypper dup --from [Packman]" or people with messy repos will 
mess up their systems ;-)

Or right click the packages in YaST -> Update unconditionally. The packages 
will have red text, indicating that only lower versions than the installed one 
are available in repos.

Funny thing how OBS sometimes gives newer packages, smaller build numbers.

Dunno about 13.2, but there are similar problems on Leap.

Do 'zypper dup --from [your packman URL]' to ensure you have a consistent set 
of Packman GStreamer packages only.

You might also need to nuke your ~/.cache/gstreamer-1.0/ and reboot.

Alternatively you can switch to the phonon VLC backend.

Thanks. I got it working now after clearing the cache.

But unfortunately that still doesn't solve my original problem, i.e. the issue 
with creating a working codec 1-click. Malcolm fixed some dependencies 
improving the situation, some days ago, but all the libst*-1_0-0 1.6.x 
packages (libgstrtsp-1_0-0, libgstgl-1_0-0 etc.), still aren't required, 
making it quite difficult to install a consistent set of gstreamer packages 
without doing a full 'zypper dup --from Packman'.

I'll study your list, but the most important thing is that it works for new

Re: [packman] GStreamer installation

[Martin Schlander]

I can't get gstreamer to play mp3 or mpeg4 on openSUSE Leap 42.1. I have 
switched system packages to Packman (dup'ed from packman) and installed just 
every conceivable gstreamer plugin.

With Dragon Player (and gstreamer phonon backend), I get audio but no video 
with mp4 files. 

With Amarok or gst123 I can't play mp3. Says I'm missing a codec/gstreamer 
module. (I _can_ play m4a, ogg, flac etc., so GStreamer is not completely 
broken).

If anyone happens to be able to play mp3 and mpeg4 on a Leap system with 
Packman GStreamer packages, I'd like to see their package list.

I forgot to mention that the issue affects openSUSE Leap 42.1. 

But Tumbleweed might be affected too, since that appears to still have 
gstreamer 1.4.x too.

[packman] GStreamer installation

[Martin Schlander]

Hi

I maintain the codec 1-clicks on opensuse-community.org

Recently there's a problem where users with a fresh installation get an 
incompatible mix of GStreamer packages from Packman (mostly 1.6.x) and from 
openSUSE (mostly 1.4.x), which leads to audio and video being broken on their 
systems.

I can't seem to figure out a good way to ensure that users get a consistent, 
working set of GStreamer packages from Packman via a 1-click.

It would seem that some dependencies are missing, and that some/most/all of 
these packages should ideally require >=1.6.x of other GStreamer packages. Or 
alternatively some kind of meta package could be available.

Is 'zypper dup --from [Packman]' (or "switch system packages" in YaST) really 
the only way to ensure a consistent install, or am I missing something?

Packman should only need to build for Tumbleweed starting today.

Of course the Tumbleweed of Today, is pretty much the same as the Factory of 
yesterday.

Maybe the Tumbleweed repo can just be deleted, and the Factory one renamed to 
Tumbleweed, more or less.

For this very purpose, this repository exists:

http://opensuse-guide.org/repo/13.1/ 

It includes nothing but libdvdcss2. 

It is included in the popular codec 1-clicks, and of course it's mentioned in

I guess the problem is not so much the "real" updates, but all the rebuilds 
with little or no changes.

Maybe it would be possible to only republish the repo once every 1-2 weeks or 
something. Of course this is not a problem specific to Packman, but goes for 
any large OBS repo.

Personally I configure Apper/PackageKit to only show patches, so I don't get 
notified about the other stuff. From time to time I manually update some stuff, 
when there are actually some "real" updates.

But I know a lot of people are installing all those rebuilds every day 
thinking each and every one is an important official update.

The gnome codec 1-click currently does not support 13.1 at all. I would think 
that yast would notify the user about that, if he runs it.

But if you can provide a list of packages that make sense to install for 
"everyone" (every gnome user that is), I'll update the 1-click accordingly.

That's my opinion at least. To have a fairly basic one-click installer that 
makes the default players work. As opposed to bloating the user's system with 
every multimedia software imaginable.

The 1-click will add the Packman repo, meaning the user can easily install 
vlc, smplayer or whatever with full features at any time after doing the 
initial 1-click codec install.

VLC is Qt, yes. But it's not KDE though. Still I think there are some solid 
arguments for making it default in 13.2 (popular and well-known, very feature 
rich, same engine as phonon default, actively developed).

But we'll see if I can convince the KDE team ;-)

Yep. Afaik it's just mediawiki and the 1-clicks and the non-OBS part of the 
YaST community repositories, that's hosted there. But there might be other 
stuff running under opensuse-community.org that I'm not aware of.

I guess even a static html page might suffice. The wiki is really not used very 
much.

Re: [packman] update codecs one-click-install

libxine2 is used by Kaffeine - the default video player on KDE installations.

The Phonon gstreamer backend has not been ported to gstreamer 1.x yet. So it's 
not needed in KDE - KDE still needs the old gstreamer 0_10. (But suggestions 
for which packages should be installed by the gnome codec 1-click would be 
very much appreciated.)

> 3. add libx264 codec (maybe it can be automatically pulled in)

What is this needed for? If it provides important functionality for xine 
and/or gstreamer, it should be pulled in by libxine2-codecs or the gstreamer 
plugins imho.

For 13.2 some big changes will be needed though. As the phonon-vlc-backend 
will most likely become default, and personally I will push for vlc to replace 
kaffeine as the default video player on KDE installations.

> BTW: who can change that file/upload new ones on opensuse-community.org ?

I've been taking care of it for some time. I believe yaloki, benjiman and 
apokryphos also have access - but I'm not sure about their activity levels.

However, Detlef has announced the o-c.o server will be terminated on 31 
December 2013, so unless some replacement server is found, o-c.o will die 
then.

Maybe better publish a couple of days before the release, if possible.

Usually coolo will publish the openSUSE OSS repo a day or two before the 
release of the ISOs - that way people can dup from their RC installs ahead of 
time and soften the load on mirrors a bit for the official release.

Also it'd be useful for creating (and testing) 1-click codec-installers, the 
YaST "community repositories" list and such, so that everything can be ready 
for the official release day.

People shouldn't need proprietary fluendo to play mp3, when they get the 
various gstreamer plugin packages (good, bad, ugly) from Packman. Works fine 
for me with no fluendo.

Also I can play encrypted dvd movies without libdvdplay0 installed, I don't 
think anything should be needed except libdvdcss2.

But not using GNOME I can't easily test the stuff, so I need some GNOME user to 
inform me which packages should be added ...or removed (I wonder if GNOMErs 
generally really need libxine for anything, which is currently installed by 
the gnome codec 1-click).

So please, any GNOME user please just provide a list of the packages you think 
should be installed, and I will update the 1-click accordingly.

I thought phonon-vlc-backend was broken cuz I didn't get any sound (with

So thank you for this tip, rescuing me from the claws of gstreamer.

Disabling Pulse is an option for me, but I prefer to keep it running as long

Try the VLC or even the gstreamer backend. The Xine phonon backend is

KDE:UpdatedApps only has stable (upstream) versions, except for very special

Sounds like GStreamer issues. Did you try any non-GStreamer players (vlc, 
smplayer, kaffeine etc.)

The simple solution is install phonon-backend-vlc, run 'kcmshell4 phonon' and 
select VLC as your preferred Phonon backend. And at least Amarok should work 
well, won't fix Totem or other GStreamer players of course.

imho mixing Packman and Videolan repos presents an unnecessary risk of weird 
little problems. Even though problems are smaller than they used to and 
package manager vendor stickyness helps too.

You're very off-topic here.

But removing that experimental repository mentioned in the error message, 
would probably be a good start.

[packman] Solid actions for DVD players (VLC, SMPlayer, Kaffeine)

[Martin Schlander]

Hey

As you may or may not be aware, it's possible to create actions for the Recent 
Devices Notifier in KDE 4.x fairly easily by installing proper *.desktop files 
to /usr/share/kde4/apps/solid/actions/. So for example when you put in a video 
DVD, the device notifier will offer an action to play the DVD with your 
favourite video player.

I've attached such files for SMPlayer, VLC and Kaffeine. I wonder if the 
respective maintainers would be interested in adding them to the packages. If 
you have contact with upstream, you might even want to ask them to include the 
solid actions in official releases.

I'm aware packman doesn't have kaffeine, but maybe someone would be willing to 
create a package with only the .desktop file for Kaffeine as a sort of add-on 
- as I don't think I can convince kde-maintainer @suse to add the action to 
official packages.

Of course if the user doesn't have libdvdcss it'll fail - but I think most 
people will have it via the 1-click, and the rest would probably realize that 
they're missing some form of codec.

All the best

There's a packman package called k3b now (kde4 version 1.68 aka. alpha3).

The kde4-k3b (1.66/alpha2) and kde4-k3b-codecs are prolly only still available 
"by accident".

However k3b-codecs doesn't automatically pull in packman k3b package.

[packman] kde4-k3b / 11.2 problems

[Martin Schlander]

Hi

I noticed a couple of small problems with the kde4-k3b package for 11.2.

1) Installing kde4-k3b from packman should "automatically" replace/obsolete 
the k3b provided with the distro, which it currently doesn't.

2) Packman version should be updated to 1.68/alpha3 (currently it's 
1.66/alpha2)

Keep up the good work.

All the best.

I think you're wrong here. The guy that reported the problem to me has used 
SUSE for a few years, and also dabbles with Debian and Arch on the side. And 
he, like most people seem to do, simply panics at the sight of the conflict 
dialog, thinking the sky is going to fall.

It wouldn't ask about the vendor change if the packages are explicitly 
specified in the ymp as far as I can tell. When I tested my 1-clicks around 
11.1 release time they'd install the desired stuff in a working manor without 
asking "scary" and "difficult" questions.

Yesterday I was informed that my 1-click had conflicts, hard to say how long 
this has been the case.

> Also note that 1-Click isn't so reliable anyway:
> http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-softwaremgmt/2008-12/msg1.html

I've maintained KDE multimedia 1-clicks for as long as the 1-click system has 
existed - and generally it works fine. Irregularities only occur when packman 
packages either want to replace existing libraries or change arch or if 
videolan and packman repo are both used at the same time - or if other similar 
"funny stuff" going on. 

Of course sometimes the solver has bugs too or acts a little too bitchy, but 
that's no different when doing manual installation.

As long as it's a simple case of installing a new package or updating an 
existing package to a newer - without "funny stuff" going on - it works 
nicely. 

As you say in the mail, it acts like the user adding a repo with default 
priority, and then installing one or more packages with yast - letting the 
solver select the (newest) version - in other words - it does exactly what 
goes on in 98% of manual installations with yast or zypper.

[packman] libxine1/libxine1-codecs problems with conflict dialogs

[Martin Schlander]

1-click installation as well as manual installation of libxine1 and libxine1-
codecs on openSUSE 11.1 triggers a conflict dialog these days regarding 
architecture change from i586 -> i686, or in some cases yast/zypp seems to 
just keep the official crippled libxine1 1.1.15 without asking as a "solution" 
to the "problem".

This makes 1-click multimedia installs pretty useless/scary for n00bs and non-
techies, and even manual installation of these crucial packages is a bit 
tricky for n00bs. I consider this a serious problem. 

While the solver being too damn sensitive is prolly the core reason for this 
particular problem - I wonder if you guys could fix it somehow - for example 
by simply dropping i686 versions for the codec stuff. Is there really any good 
reason to have those at all?

Here's the list of conflicts from yast:

Not sure if packman provide those, but you can create and host your own *.ymp

[packman] Some ideas

[Martin Schlander]

Encouraged by Pascal's blog post I thought I'd share some ideas/requests. 
Maybe some of them are of interest to some of you.

* Package Gnash + Klash (konq plugin for gnash). I believe the gnash package 
in oss doesn't work on youtube because it's built without ffmpeg and also the 
official package lacks the klash plugin for whatever reason. 
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/

* Mplayer-thumbs. A KDE4 version is available, providing preview/thumbnails of 
videofiles in Dolphin/Konq
http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=41180

* KompoZer. It's the continued version of Nvu, afaik Nvu is no longer 
developed, and they had to change the name for trademark reasons, so it's not 
really a fork. I don't have a personal interest, but I think it would be good 
to have it easily available for the distro - though the i386 rpm available on 
the site appears to work.
http://www.kompozer.net/

* Update KTorrent to 3.1

* Keep up the good work

All the best

Martin
