</div></div>If they used replacement libraries accurately and others package<br>
doesn't harcode the path of theses library (using rpath, which will be<br>
an error from the fedora package itself). It should work.<br>

Either you should be able to install them from the fedora repository,<br>
or you can install vlc-core and vlc with --nodeps<br>
<br>
Support for Linpus ends here. (we don't support this OS at RPMFusion IMO)...<br>

</blockquote></div><br>Many thanks Nicolas, I fully agree, acer related problems should not be here. Until now, there have not been any problems using fc8 repos, livna etc with acer and I hope acer users can continue using those repos. Of course there is no guarantee of working and it is up to acer users to solve any possible problems by themselves.<br>
<br>I have managed to install 0.9.4 just using your instructions (copy missing dependencies etc.) and seve's rpm's without problems by myself and question was mainly just availability of 0.9.5 rpm just for standard fc8 users (It's up to me to take care of any acer related issues if there are any)?<br>
<br>(for ex I have one additional standard fedora installation and use vlc on that also)<br><br>Thanks<br>Tarmo<br><br>
