Problem installing Avidemux 2.6.6 on fedora 20.

Fedora haven't set up Avidemux 2.6.6 in their repo so I decided to try and install it as described here using the --rpm option:

http://avidemux.org/admWiki/doku.php?id=build:install_2.6

I get the following five rpm files in the debs folder:

ls -l
total 5724
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 2249672 Nov  1 16:15 avidemux3-core-2.6.0_r0.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1714900 Nov  1 16:15 avidemux3-plugins-COMMON-2.6.6-0.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   90820 Nov  1 16:15 avidemux3-plugins-QT4-2.6.6-0.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   38788 Nov  1 16:15 avidemux3-plugins-SETTINGS-2.6.6-0.x86_64.rpm
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1754820 Nov  1 16:15 avidemux3-qt4-2.6.6-0.x86_64.rpm


I then attempt the install via yum install *.rpm but it tries to download package avidemux-libs-2.6.4-7.fc20.x86_64 which conflicts with the 2.6.6 packages. So how do a create a suitable version of avidemux-libs.

Thanks

Hello I'm new to Avidemux and was wondering if you can resolve my solution. How do you crop out the parts of the video.

You use the A & B markers to delineate the part you want to snip out. You should start your own thread for new questions rather than piggy back on threads on other topics.

I have been advised that the rpm's generated by the avidemux bootstrap script are not correctly packaged for the newer editions of fedora, which requires libs separated out into a libs package. Although it is possible to work around this, it appears that it will be better to wait until rpmfusion package the new version for their repo, so I will wait until then.

It looks strange
Might be an error in the rpm descriptor, let me check

Hi! I've was build a small patch about that, about this thread, but it leave untested. If you want, you can do that. Patch attached. Otherwise the thread mentioned above might help. Good luck!
