openh264-libs conflict with official openh264 from fedora
kparal opened this issue · comments
Hello, there is a new openh264 repository in Fedora 24 (probably will appear in Fedora 23 in some time as well):
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-be775029bd
That repository contains openh264, gstreamer plugin, and firefox plugin:
$ sudo dnf repository-packages fedora-cisco-openh264 list
Available Packages
gstreamer1-plugin-openh264.i686 1.6.1-2.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
gstreamer1-plugin-openh264.x86_64 1.6.1-2.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
mozilla-openh264.x86_64 1.5.2-0.4.git21e44bd.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264.i686 1.5.2-0.4.git21e44bd.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264.x86_64 1.5.2-0.4.git21e44bd.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264-devel.i686 1.5.2-0.4.git21e44bd.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
openh264-devel.x86_64 1.5.2-0.4.git21e44bd.fc24 fedora-cisco-openh264
That repository is not enabled by default, but it will be available by default.
The problem is that I want the mozilla plugin installed, but I also installed ffmpeg from your "Handbrake" repository, which pulled openh264-libs, and it conflicts:
$ sudo dnf install gstreamer1-plugin-openh264 mozilla-openh264
Dependencies resolved.

Error Summary
-------------
Is it possible to solve this somehow? E.g. make your openh264-libs just a weak dependency for ffmpeg, so that it can be removed and replaced with Fedora's openh264. Or dropping openh264-libs completely, and requiring the user to enable fedora-cisco-openh264 repository and pull the codec from it?

Hi Kamil,
will look at it. I'm currently travelling around Japan and I will be back
home on the 23rd of may.
How do you know that the repository will be enabled by default? Also the
gstreamer plugin is already included in my gstreamer-plugins-bad rebuild,
so I guess just bumping the epoch is more appropriate here.
Thanks for reporting!

It's not enabled by default, at least currently. But it's available on disk, so you can easily enable it (and gnome-software/packagekit can even search in it, while the repo is still technically disabled). You can see it if you install latest fedora-repos for F24.
It would be nice if your repos could co-exist with fedora-repos easily, so instead of overriding standard packages (by using higher epoch or such), maybe you could drop those from your repository (while keeping the dependency) and require people to enable fedora-cisco-openh264 before activating your repo.
Having the same problem.
Maybe if openh264-libs virtually provides openh264 then the mozilla package will be happy. Also gstreamer1-plugins-bad from negativo17 virtually provides many of the package names from rpmfusion but forgot the nonfree variant. It fails on install of course.
Hello, sorry for the late reply, I was a bit busy.
Regarding the gstreamer1-plugins-bad-nonfree variant, there is another issue open and the updated gstreamer1-plugins-bad package has just been uploaded.
I've summarized it here: http://negativo17.org/openh264-firefox-support/
Seems to be working now. At least it's enabled in firefox and thinks it's up to date.
