Description Xavier Bachelot 2024-09-11 12:02:59 UTC
Hi,

Could you please branch and build schroedinger for EPEL 10 ?
It is needed to build another package.

Regards,
Xavier

What is the downside of having schrodinger disabled ? 

Dirac video never came up beyond BBC and upstream is dead for more than 10 years...

Comment 2 Xavier Bachelot 2024-09-28 11:25:34 UTC
While dirac is probably not that widespread, I would say comprehensiveness and divergence with Fedora.
Imho, if/when Fedora's ffmpeg drops the BR on schroedinger, then it would be fine not to have it in EPEL 10, but not until that.

Comment 3 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2024-09-30 11:33:37 UTC
Fedora can drop libschrodinger at anytime, it will be dropped from the Fedora maintained distribution within a year or so.
But for EPEL, the timeline is different, we have a strong incentive not to introduce libraries that 

There is a precedent in Fedora where bellagio-omxil was removed, also flite are disabled on RHEL, so it can also be adjusted...

Comment 4 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2024-09-30 11:34:17 UTC
...ntroduce libraries that can be removed thereafter.

Comment 5 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2024-10-01 21:19:37 UTC
Okay, problem solved, schroedinger usage is removed from upstream ffmpeg code, so it's just that the package still have it.
Vlc should use the ffmpeg implementation instead.
