[vlc] Re: Linux Distro

[Torsten Spindler]

I agree that a debian based distribution is most likely easier to use
for vlc. 

However I found that for Red Hat and Fedora the yum repositories found
at http://www.freshrpms.net/ and
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/videolan-client/ do a very good job in
installing vlc and libraries it uses. Though those rpms are considered
unofficial. You can add these repositories in /etc/yum.conf or in the
source.list configuration of apt for rpm.

For SuSE I used http://packman.links2linux.org/ as source and vlc was
installed with Yast without problems. Also I assume that the vlc rpms
are unofficial as well.

Bye,
Torsten
