    Installing on centos 6.3 32 bits, looking good except one deps:
    Error: Package: vlc-2.0.5-8.el6.i686 (linuxtech-release)
    Requires: libbluray.so.1

    Got libbluray1-0.2.2-2.fc18.i686.rpm from atrpm, still deps issue.

    so went: yum install vlc –skip-broken
    [bluray not essential at the moment…]

    It works, mp3 et al… many thanks for your valuable contribution to open sources!
    Not to mention saving me a headache.

    Hi Rajiv

    I’m getting the following error

    http://pkgrepo.linuxtech.net/el6/release/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2: [Errno -3] Error performing checksum

    I ideas why that is the case?

  11. Rajiv Sharma says:

    Hi Tarek,
    have you try yum update before vlc player installation..?

    do it again ( yum update)

    and follow the above process.

  12. manuel says:

    Would this work in cloudlinux too? i’m afraid to try.

    Thanks!

  13. Rajiv Sharma says:

    Hi manuel

    this process will work on all Rad Hat (RHEL) bases Linux operating system. cloud is based on Debian and i haven’t use this before but i think this will not work in cloudlinux.

  14. manuel says:

    I tried and this is what i get 😦

    You could try using –skip-broken to work around the problem
    You could try running: rpm -Va –nofiles –nodigest
