libdvdcss on SuSE ?

[jlc]

Ok I'm playing around on my laptop with sort of a SuSE beta. So apt-get for suse just wont due.

 

I need libdvdcss to play a dvd in kaffeine so I go to packman thats the best German translation I get from it.

 

 

 

If you load libdvdcss the tar.bz2-Datei into to nosrc.rpm suitable version from  videolan , copy from file/usr/src/packages/SOURCES /, load you nosrc.rpm down and you translate the library also RPM -- rebuild -- target=i686 libdvdcss*.nosrc.rpm. The finished RPMs is then under/to usr/src/packages/RPMS/i686 /, which can to be installed her as used.

So I go out get libdvdcss, compile it in /usr/src/packages/SOURCE and then

rpmbuild --rebuild --target=i686 libdvdcss*.nosrc.rpm

 

Get the following error

 

  RPM build errors:

   user manfred does not exist - using root

Thoughts, feelings, anything?

why make an rpm (well other than being able to install and uninstall easily) when you could probably just compile it with half the effort?

 

just make sure that where ever you prefix it to that that is in ld.so.conf.

 

EDIT: were you root when you went to build the rpm? rpms may need to be built as root (to ensure proper execution of the rpm buildscript and to get the proper permissions on your package files).

[jlc]

Yep, I was root.

 

When I get a chance to get back to it, I will just try and track down the src and build it.

[sarah31]

you mean this source

 

tar -zxvf libdvdcss-1.2.8

cd libdvdcss-1.2.8

./configure --prefix=/usr

make

su

make install

 

then just stuff the directory in a "savedsource" dir so that you can uninstall it if need be with make uninstall. that is what i do on my mac and it works great (i need it on my mac for transcode btw and not for the native dvd player). as long as xine/mplayer/whatever has dvd support compiled in then you should be good to go from there.

 

edit: oh yeah and run ldconfig as root after too i suppose

[jlc]

I already had built that one, it was libdvdcss"2" that it says it needs?

 

It wont read a dvd, says because of laws you have to do it your self, you thank that it needs a different library than that one?

[sarah31]

thatr is the the most recent release i have no idea why they call it libdvdcss2

[sarah31]

perhaops you need libdvdread too?
