If they used replacement libraries accurately and others package doesn't harcode the path of theses library (using rpath, which will be an error from the fedora package itself). It should work. >From what I've been reported, Linpus doesn't provides some package vlc use as dependencies. (for example libdvdread, pulseaudio, etc) Either you should be able to install them from the fedora repository, or you can install vlc-core and vlc with --nodeps Support for Linpus ends here. (we don't support this OS at RPMFusion IMO)... Nicolas (kwizart)
