Has anyone managed to get VLC up and running on FC 5? I am having a devil of a time. I'm using videolan's own packages, but running 'yum install vlc' produces:
Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11(GNUTLS_REL_1_0_9) is needed by package vlc Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.11 is needed by package vlc Error: Missing Dependency: libdbus-1.so.1 is needed by package vlc
These are old versions of libraries that are already on my system - is it wise to install old software? And if it's not a bad thing to do, how does one do it using yum or rpm? Alternatively, has anyone tried building this software from source?
Any help greatly appreciated.

Yes, I got it running ages ago. I don't recall any problems. I installed it using the packages from Livna.

Thank you to both respondents - Livna worked straightaway. It looks like my problem was that I had *both* Livna and VLC repos operative at the same time, and they conflicted somehow.
