I compiled ffmpeg manually to have jack audio [1] support by following

~/bin/ffmpeg (also in my PATH). Before doing this I removed (with yum)
ffmpeg. Now if I try to:

yum install kdenlive

it will want to install ffmpeg.

Any suggestions, ideas, pointers are welcome.

Thanks Rahul, fakeprovide did the trick.

I guess jack support is a bit of a nichie/corner case, but maybe could 
be filed as a request.

Thanks Kevin, I guess that would be a more canonical way of doing it. As 
soon as I have the time (TM) I'll look into it.

Download the srpm for Y.  Substitute your configuration/code/options for
the srpm's versions.  Build a new, local version of the RPM.  Use your
RPM instead of the one in the repos.  Make sure that your version is
always > the versions in the repos.  (ie, whenever a new version hits
the repos, update/build your version again.)

Try

https://github.com/larsks/fakeprovide/blob/master/fakeprovide

Also look at why RPM Fusion ffmpeg doesn't this support and file a bug
report if necessary

Handling and resolving 'dependency' which has been custom compiled

2015-03-27 Thread Lorenzo Sutton

Hi all,

What is the best way in Fedora to handle the following situation?

- Package X depends on package Y
- Package Y is actually installed through custom compiling it (in $HOME/bin)
- Doing:

yum install X

will want to install Y

Specifically in my case X is kdenlive and Y is ffmpeg.

I compiled ffmpeg manually to have jack audio [1] support by following 
the guide on the ffmpeg website [2]. This means ffmpeg is in 
~/bin/ffmpeg (also in my PATH). Before doing this I removed (with yum) 
ffmpeg. Now if I try to:


yum install kdenlive

it will want to install ffmpeg.

Any suggestions, ideas, pointers are welcome.

Thanks
Lorenzo.
