Description Reginald McCord 2004-05-23 03:11:27 UTC

Description of problem:  Mplayer no longer works after upgrading to
Fedira Core 2.  I get the following error if I attempt to start the
application from a command line:

[rmccord@Hendrix rmccord]$ gmplayer
gmplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libdv.so.2: cannot
open shared object file: No such file or directory

After running the 'find' command as root (find / -name gmplayer -print
), its located in '/usr/bin/gmplayer'.  An rpm query shows the
application version: 
[root@Hendrix rmccord]# rpm -q mplayer
mplayer-1.0-0.2.pre2.fr
However libdv.so.2 was never found.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mplayer-1.0-0.2.pre2.fr

How reproducible:
Run 'Movie Player' from gnome menu, or 'gmplayer' from command line.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

We don't support mplayer.

You can work around this problem with FC2.  Search in your lib
directory,  mine is /usr/lib  for file name like libdv*.  I found
libdv.so.4.  Then create symbolic link to libdv.so.2:

ln -s libdv.so.4 libdv.so.2

For FC2  libdv.so.4  is linked to file libdv.so.4.0.0

it's all good
