Cinelerra => nothing provides libx264.so.98

When trying to install Cinelerra from the packman repos an error msg comes up:

nothing provides libx264.so.98

For the fun of it.

I search for the latest libx264.so, which is libx264.so.107. This is located in /usr/lib64/

I created a link libx264.so.98=>libx264.so.107

The best way would have been to install cinelerra via command-line…

Did it via yast, yast complained re missing lib…installed anyway

Working…just need to test a bit…to be sure

Works !!! there are a few plugins missing which I probably have to place in /usr/lib64/cinerella/ manually…will see.

The reason I installed cinerella was to find an easy way to convert 4:3 to 16:9. Basically by cropping. A bit fiddly to begin with, but it works.

cheers;)

After reading this I informed Packman of the problem and they have already republished x264-98.

PLEASE!!! When you find a bug, report it to the maintainers. Using Bugzilla for openSUSE packages and mail for Packman.

Will do next time !!!

cheers
