Hello,

recently I have been encountering mkv files that cannot be read with xine or mplayer from rpmforge. I noticed that libmatroska (and libebml on which it depends) are at version 1.0.0 on http://www.matroska.org/downloads/linux.html . Hopefully these newer versions might allow to view the problematic mkv files.

I could not try to rebuild these versions myself, because installing the rf srpm fails although my file does not seem corrupted:

[nthie...@tryo Build]$ rpm -K libebml-0.7.8-1.rf.src.rpm
libebml-0.7.8-1.rf.src.rpm: (sha1) dsa sha1 md5 gpg OK
[nthie...@tryo Build]$ rpm -ivh libebml-0.7.8-1.rf.src.rpm
   1:libebml    warning: user dag does not exist - using root
warning: group dag does not exist - using root
########################################### [100%]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /home/nthierry/rpms/Build/SOURCES/libebml-0.7.8.tar.bz2;4ce160a0: cpio: MD5 sum mismatch

[as a side note: what's the problem here, am I doing something wrong?]

However I looked at some announcements and changelogs and it seems they should build easily.

Anyone have the skills and time to try to build the newer libebml and libmatroska?

Thanks!

Regards,
Nicolas
