GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 124966
No Ximian package list for Red Hat 9 in apt-repository
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
The web page http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/ has instructions for how to set up apt to download Gstreamer on Red Hat machines. At one place, it says: " * For Red Hat 8.0 and 9.0, a stock Red Hat system will do. You should add "redhat" to the previous lines. For Ximian add 'ximian'. So for 8.0, you would get the following using stock Red Hat: rpm http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/ redhat-80-i386 deps redhat rpm-src http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/ redhat-80-i386 deps redhat # If you run Ximian Gnome 2, add "ximian" after deps on both these lines." But there is no package list for Ximian in the RH9 repository, so adding "ximian" to these source lines won't work. apt then gives a 404 error: Err http://gstreamer.net redhat-9-i386/ximian pkglist 404 Not Found Ign http://gstreamer.net redhat-9-i386/ximian release Hit http://gstreamer.net redhat-9-i386/deps srclist Err http://gstreamer.net redhat-9-i386/ximian srclist 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/redhat-9-i386/base/pkglist.ximian 404 Not Found Failed to fetch http://gstreamer.net/releases/redhat/redhat-9-i386/base/srclist.ximian 404 Not Found
i don't think you'll find any RH9 package anytime soon nowadays, gstreamer team distribute some Fedora Core 3 RPMs, perhaps older FC closing as it is a packaging/distro issue
