I cannot get mkvtoolnix to work due broken dependencies. Also, the package is old: v6.3 where as 13.1 already have v6.7 which have a lot of fixes. I’ve tried to install 13.1 version but unfortunately it uses more recent libs compared to tumbleweed thus no luck.
mkvmerge: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_regex.so.1.49.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
installed lib: libboost_regex1_53_0-1.53.0-4.1.2.x86_64
Hopefully someone can either fix this in tumbleweed or provide help to solve the problem.
Sorry, I don’t understand that completely.
13.1 does actually have 6.3 included. And this should install fine, as Tumbleweed is based on 13.1. at the moment.
Where do you see 6.7 in 13.1?
mkvmerge: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_regex.so.1.49.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
installed lib: libboost_regex1_53_0-1.53.0-4.1.2.x86_64
The last distribution where “libboost_regex.1.49.0” was included is 12.3.
If it was included in 13.1, you would have it when using Tumbleweed.
The package you are trying to install is obviously intended for 12.3 therefore.
So could you please post the full link where you downloaded the package from? (or the repo URL if you added a repo)
And please post your repo list in any case:
You could remove the 12.2 CD (#3) and the 12.3-Update-Non-Oss repo (#11) if you want.
You have the corresponding openSUSE-current repos anyway.
yast and zypper cannot find more recent version of mkvtoolnix under tumbleweed. Don’t know for which openSUSE version 6.3 is meant for.
Again, that’s what’s included in 13.1, i.e. openSUSE-current.
If you want version 6.7 you could try to install the 13.1 package from the multimedia:apps repo. This should work fine on Tumbleweed, but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend to add the whole repo. http://software.opensuse.org/package/mkvtoolnix
(click on “Show other versions” and “Show possibly unstable packages”)
The package would be downgraded to 6.3 on every “zypper dup” though.
I will create a Tumbleweed package for you.
So, it seems that there are then some issues with the mkvtoolnix version available as it requires obsolete library.
I’ll wait for a while if you manage to get mkvtoolnix updated for tumbleweed. I’d rather not mix stable and unstable because this PC operates as home server as well.
No the 6.3.0 version from openSUSE-Current is fine.
Which one do you mean exactly?
As I said, if it requires libboost 1.49.0, it is for 12.3, not 13.1 or Tumbleweed.
The one from Factory may have requirements of course that are not in openSUSE-Current or Tumbleweed.
I’ll wait for a while if you manage to get mkvtoolnix updated for tumbleweed. I’d rather not mix stable and unstable because this PC operates as home server as well.
It’s building atm, I 'll report back when it’s finished.
You should add the repo, so “zypper dup” doesn’t downgrade the package again.
That repo only contains hydrogen as well and I don’t plan to add anything, so it’s safe to do it.
Apparently there is something else wrong in my tumbleweed installation. I added the repo and installed mkvtoolnix (version 6.7, thx for that) but when I try to run mkvmerge I get the same error as before:
mkvmerge: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_regex.so.1.49.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
For some reason the dependency is incorrect. How can I find out what is the problem and then how to fix that?
The following NEW package is going to be installed:
kernel-desktop-3.11.10-7.1
That’s the kernel from openSUSE-Current-Updates.
Apparently you have the kernel 3.11.6 from openSUSE-Current installed, so zypper wants to update it.
If you uninstall kernel-desktop-3.11.6, it shouldn’t want to install 3.11.10 anymore I think.
The following package is going to be REMOVED:
microcode_ctl
This is old package but apparently zypper thinks this is new.
No. This package doesn’t exist anymore, so zypper wants to REMOVE it.
To your dependency problem: Maybe you have some self-compiled mkvmerge somewhere in your path?
Please post the output of:
Ok, no idea then why zypper wants to install that kernel 3.11.10, but it doesn’t really matter anyway I’d say (despite of disk space for 1 additional kernel, if you would install it).
And commands provide:
which mkvmerge : /usr/local/bin/mkvmerge
rpm -qfi which mkvmerge : file /usr/local/bin/mkvmerge is not owned by any package
As suspected, you have some self-compiled/downloaded-from-somewhere mkvmerge in /usr/local/bin/, which is compiled with boost-1.49.
Remove that and the one from my package will be used, which will work on your system because it is compiled for Tumbleweed.
And better check if there’s anything else in /usr/local/ that shouldn’t be there.
For explanation: /usr/local/bin/ is in the path before /usr/bin/, so if a program is in both directories, the one in /usr/local/bin/ will be preferred.
/usr/local/ is intended for the local admin to override the stuff shipped by the distribution in /usr/.
My package install all stuff to /usr/ (so all the programs to /usr/bin/), as that is the standard for openSUSE packages.
Thx for the help. Apparently I’ve compiled mkvtoolnix long time ago. After removing related binaries the package from repositories started working fine - except for one thing. There does not seem to be GUI version in the package. Would it be possible to get that also included?

You should also find it in the application launch menu as “mkvmerge-GUI” (Multimedia->Media Editing).
But on KDE I had to manually run “kbuildsycoca4” to refresh the menu after installing the package (or either logout/login or reboot).
