Packman issues installing codecs

English Multimedia
#1

Hi,

I am having issues installing codecs on a new install. I have used the opi installer and manual and this keeps happening

the installed libavcodec58_134-4.4.4-2.6.x86_64 requires ‘libswresample3_9 = 4.4.4-2.6’, but this requirement cannot be provided

[ ] Following actions will be done:

remove lock to allow removal of libavcodec58_134-4.4.4-2.6.x86_64
deinstallation of libchromaprint1-1.5.1-4.4.x86_64
[ ] keep obsolete libswresample3_9-4.4.4-2.6.x86_64

[ ] break libavcodec58_134-4.4.4-2.6.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies

Kernel

Linux DELL-E6430 6.5.6-1-default #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Oct 6 11:20:48 UTC 2023 (c97c2df) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

packman repo used

sudo zypper addrepo -cfp 90 ‘Index of /pub/linux/misc/packman/suse/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/’ packman]

Any ideas? Should I just wait?

#2

That seems to be the version from the oss repo, rather than the one from the packman repo.

What’s the output from:

zypper lr -d

#4

Your repos look okay, except that #6 appears to be a duplicate of #1. You might want to delete or disable one of those.

You can probably solve your codec problem with:

zypper dup --from packman --allow-vendor-change

That should switch package to packman, when they are available there.

I didn’t notice that. Thanks.
