VLC

The Fedoraproject-pages say the following:

The Fedora Project recently re-signed all of its packages with a new key. Background details regarding the key change are found here. This page exists to aide users in the transition to the newly signed content and further updates for Fedora 8 and Fedora 9.

I assume many (if not all) of you have by now experienced the following problem when installing VLC:

Error: Missing Dependency: libpulse.so.0(PULSE_0) is needed by package vlc
Error: Missing Dependency: libopendaap.so.0 is needed by package vlc-core
Error: Missing Dependency: libdvdnav.so.4 is needed by package vlc-core

The solution to this is to install the new key distributed by fedora. This is how you do it.

Download, verify and install this RPM-file:

$ sudo su -
# wget http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/fedora-release/8/6.transition/data/signed/4f2a6fd2/noarch/fedora-release-8-6.transition.noarch.rpm

Now verify that the package sha1sum matches 9a684ad36f4c1f49df7c569d5990d00f7da2cb9c:

# sha1sum fedora-release-8-6.transition.noarch.rpm

Once that is verified, install the package through rpm:

# rpm -Uvh fedora-release-8-6.transition.noarch.rpm

Now import the new GPG-key like so:

# rpm --import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-8-and-9

And that should be it. You should now be able to download and install VLC (among other things) as normal. :)
