Meego. Community Repo.

Hi Everyone,

I'm glad to announce that thanks to ZigBee we have all codecs necessary for playing videos and mp3's packaged and ready to install from our repo. Also vlc, mplayer and totem are available, as well as the other useful software you requested.

Adding the repository
First, remove the previous configuration (if you already had one):

Code:

cd /etc/zypp/repos.d

rm meego.repo

rm community.repo

rm "Community Repo.repo"

cd /etc/yum.repos.d

rm meego.repo

Now import the new configuration:
Meego1.0 users

Code:

cd /etc/yum.repos.d

wget http://mirror.yandex.ru/mirrors/meego-community/meego1.0/community.repo

cd /etc/zypp/repos.d

wget http://mirror.yandex.ru/mirrors/meego-community/meego1.0/community.repo

Meego1.1 users

Code:

cd /etc/zypp/repos.d

wget http://mirror.yandex.ru/mirrors/meego-community/meego1.1/community.repo

After that (all users) unchek the option "Filters - Only native packages" in the PackageKit (Menu->Applications->System->Add/Remove Applications).

Installing codecs:

Code:

sudo zypper install ffmpeg faac faad2 gstreamer-ffmpeg gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-uggly mpeg2dec libmatroska libdvdnav libdvdread lame x264

Do not hesitate to ask for additional software. We will try to port it to MeeGo. The main criteria for the software is:

1. It is Open Source,
2. There is src.rpm or spec for other rpm-bases distributions,
3. It doesn't require rebuilding the base MeeGo packages.

If you also have some useful stuff to share, you are welcome. Just ask me in PM and I will give you login to my server. I will support this repo until we find some better place.
