Why mplayer in i686 repository is not compiled with vdpau support?

I was kind of surprised when I find out that mplayer in i686 repository is not compiled with vdpau,
since it is in x86_64 repository,
I know I could enable vdpau easily by compiling the package myself,
but wouldn't it be even better if it is built-in in the official binary?

I think that the dynamic loader would then search for libvdpau.so, and not find it on systems without nVidia-drivers, which causes the program to not load Also, it's not very KISS to have several different packages for different needs in the main repos. That's what AUR/ABS's for.

  • [SOLVED] haskell - citeproc-hs was not compiled with bibutils support

    Hi all,
    since I have not yet been able to get help in arch-haskell's IRC channel, I am posting here, maybe someone has an idea:
    I am using pandoc which I have retrieved along with all its dependencies from the haskell binary repository. But when I try to process a bibliography, I get an error message from citeproc-hs:
    pandoc: citeproc: Bibliography format not supported.
    citeproc-hs was not compiled with bibutils support.
    Supposing that the error message is not misleading, I wonder how do I recompile with bibutils support then?
    Googling gave some results concerned with haskell-hs-bibutils, which seems to have been on the haskell repo earlier but is there no longer, so I installed it from AUR (modifying the PKGBUILD to accept haskell-syb>=0.3 instead of =0.3).
    Reinstalling haskell-citeproc-hs did not help.
    Next I tried with cloning habs the haskell repo (as is described here). Since I could not find any switch in haskell-citeproc-hs's PKGBUILD that would disable bibutils support I directly issued
    ./makeahpkg -- haskell-citeproc-hs
    but the resulting package gives the same error as the one from the repo.
    Should I have taken extra steps to build/install haskell-hs-bibutils also in the habs chroot? Or anything else?
    TIA,
    Andreas

    Yes, it seems this was the problem. Besides cloning habs, I now went on to manually copy the necessary files of bibutils-dynamic and haskell-hs-bibutils from AUR into the local HABS tree, modify dependencies in haskell-hs-bibutils, haskell-citeproc-hs and haskell-pandoc (an additional dependency on haskell-hs-bibutils in haskell-citeproc-hs, in the other cases only change of version numbers).
    Then
    ./makeahpkg -c -- bibutils-dynamic haskell-hs-bibutils haskell-citeproc-hs haskell-pandoc
    produced four packages which I could install and now the error is gone and I can turn to debugging my document and bibliography files

  • Why does my original Apple ID not work with the support community?

    I've been signing in with the same Apple ID for at least four years.  My username on these forums is JayhawkCWE.  When I tried to sign on this morning, it told me I had to make a new account. When I entered my preferred ID (my forum handle, not the Apple ID), which is my original ID and the one that shows me all of my asked questions (which is the only reason I really care about this...), it says it's already taken.  I'm not senile, I know my Apple ID and I know I've been using it for years.  What gives?

    I will email you directly.

  • Why Does Live View In DW Not Work With BC Template?

    The live view using a BC template in DW CS6 shows "PAGE NOT FOUND" in the body section but the header and footer look fine. I should also point out that the index.htm page works fine, it's just the other pages that have this problem. What makes it weirder is that the site works fine in all other modes including when viewing in a normal browser, it's ONLY when in live view! I also noticed that if I delete the .htm extension in the url in the DW browser when in Live View it fixes the problem, but this requires me to do this everytime I want to switch to live view and surely is either a problem with how the BC template files are named or DW CS6 is buggy? Hopefully this is an easy one to answer??

  • Why is the Verizon ellipsis 8 not compatible with verizons messaging app

    Love to understand why the Verizon texting app is not compatible with the ellipsis 8 ? I bought this Tablet to replace my old Samsung Galaxy tablet that died from over use.

  • Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5?

    Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

    It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
    And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

  • Kaffeine embedded crash fixed when compiled with libxcb support?

    From kaffeine website:
    Embedded Kaffeine crash fixed.
    This long standing bug is now fixed in current svn ...
    In order to make it possible, we have ported Kaffeine and xine to xcb (a thread-safe replacement for xlib).
    You can give it a try right now:
    1) install libxcb=>1.0
    2) install current xine-lib cvs (it contains xcb based video output plugins: xshm and xv)
    2) install current Kaffeine svn
    Notes
    a) Both xine-lib and Kaffeine have to be compiled with xcb support (autodetected, check configure results).
    b) Kaffeine will still work with xlib based video out plugins if compiled without xcb (but then, no fix!)
    From 0.8.4 changelog:
    * xine-part: support for xcb. Requires libxcb 1.0 and xine-lib 1.1.5. Fixes several issues.
    Any reason not to incorporate this? If it lives up to it's promises It could mean kde users only need ONE media player :-)  (I have 2 installed just to get DVD menus and embedding in konqueror without crashing)
    Any thoughts?
    Cheers,
    Steve.

    I felt that the laptop was possibly overheating and that is why I started down the road to call "customer support", thinking that a fan went out or there was damage to hardware due to it over heating.  And that road got me no where in a fast manner, and two "techs" telling me it was a software related issue and that I needed to reformat the laptop (twice) and re-install to factory settings.  Even when I did this, it still had the issue and they again told me that it was software related when there was no software on the computer except for Windows 7.  The only thing that customer support helped me with is the knowledge of next time I buy a laptop, but Dell or any other laptop besides a Toshiba.  That is too bad.
    Anyway, I tried to continue on with my thinking of a possible over heating issue, so I blew air into the vents and fins of the laptop.  A lot of dust came out.  I kept blowing air into the vents until no more dust came.
    My wife had to re-install everything again to her laptop after I got the major items re-installed.  She has been running it for the last day or so with no issues.  We hope that this was the issue.  I know she enjoys the laptop when it was running well.
    I guess we will see how it goes.

  • PHP5 package compiled with LDAP support?

    When I check phpinfo() it appears the PHP5 package was compiled with LDAP support but for some reason when I try a ldap_connect function in php it errors with 'Fatal error: Call to undefined function ldap_connect() in ...'
    Anybody have any idea what the problem is?
    Thanks,
    Craig

    I'm not sure about the php.ini thing, I've combed through it looking for idea's as well, but the only ldap string in the whole file is this 'extension=php_ldap.dll' and that doesn't apply to Arch.
    Also at http://www.php.net/ldap it talks about requirements etc and I'm almost thinking that the php5 package is not compiled with ldap even though when I do a phpinfo() it does show '--with-ldap' in the compile settings.

  • Why is the google tool bar not compatable with 5.o? Will it be soon? If not can I unistall 5.0 until it is compatable. I need the googl tool bar and you guys just ruined my day with this upgrade!

    The Google toolbar is not compatible with 5.0. It has been compatible with every previous version up until now. I need to know if and when it will be compatible.

    I don't think anybody will tell you why. Only Google could possibly answer that.

    '''see''' https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/841081
    for how to use the Google Toolbar with FF5 with support from neither Google nor Mozilla.
