Bugzilla – Bug 966788
chromium-ffmpeg cannot be installed
Last modified: 2016-02-16 09:26:08 UTC
I am using from network:chromium repo, updated some hours ago. # rpm -q chromium chromium-48.0.2564.103-830.2.x86_64 # rpm -q chromium-ffmpeg chromium-ffmpeg-48.0.2564.103-833.1.x86_64 Attempt to upgrade all installed packages for which there is a newer version available through YaST gives me: ----- nothing provides chromium = 48.0.2564.109 needed by chromium-ffmpeg-48.0.2564.109-834.1.x86_64 Possible Solutions [ ] do not install chromium-ffmpeg-48.0.2564.109-834.1.x86_64 [ ] break chromium-ffmpeg-48.0.2564.109-834.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies ----- but neither of those looks suitable for me as I prefer to continue using chromium-ffmpeg without breaking anything. I hope someone can look into this.
chromium = 48.0.2564.109 is available. refresh your repositories if required.
Now it checks. Thanks!
Dear George, This can happen also in the future and there is little that we can do about it. Chromium itself is being build on the openSUSE OBS due to its size and resource requirements. chromium-ffmpeg is build on packman as that it builds an actual full blown ffmpeg library, which has certain patent and legal issues. Given that there are two build environments involved, it can always happen that one is publishing the binaries earlier than the other one. In most cases it would be the openSUSE OBS one that publish the binaries first, but this time it was packman that was first. As you noticed, this normally is resolved within a couple of hours.

Thank you for explaining Raymond! If it happens with a future build I will wait a bit more then :)
