What's up doc ?


17/08/2007 :
I think you have noticed the Google Ads. I need that to pay the huge amount of bandwidth.


19/07/2008 :
No my repository for Lenny isn't broken. I've changed the liblame0 libray name to libmp3lame0, and some pakcages are not yet in Lenny, so some others packages aren't installable (mythtv for example).

For now mencoder, mplayer-nogui, transcode and xvidcap aren't installable in Lenny.
mplayer-nogui should be installable the 22 July.Done.
transcode should be installable the 23 July.Done.
xvidcap should be installable the 26 July.Done.

You can follow the unstable lenny transition here or also read my the related entry in my FAQ

Be patient.

25/06/2008 :
transcode has been removed from testing because liblzo1 is now deprecated and thus removed.
A new upstream release is scheduled for the next week-end.

New localized acroread packages.
Maybe you have not noticed by you can use acroread in the following language: Brazil (pt-br), French (fr), German (de), Italian (it) ands Spanish (es).
Package name are acroread-l10n-XX (localization), acroread-dictionary-XX (dictionaries) and acroread-doc-XX (documentation).>br /> Replace XX by you locale (ie: fr for French).

18/06/2008 :
Broken ffmpeg libraries :
Since Debian use the same soname packages name than my packages, official packages (vlc, totem, etc...) linked against libavc* doesn't work with my libavc* packages.
If you want to use vlc and friends you need to downgrade libavc* packages to the official packages.
Beware : downgrading to these packages will remove all debian-multimedia packages who depends on libavc*
To downgrade do the following :
dpkg -l | grep 3:2008
for each package echoed do :
apt-get install --reinstall <package>=0.svn20080206-8
0.svn20080206-8 is the unstable version and 0.cvs20070307-6 for testing (check with apt-cache for the current version).

If somebody know a better solution tell me.

27/04/2008 :
New archs : mipsel and armel.
I did these packages with qemu and seems to work on real machine. Please test and tell me if you see bugs.

Also, support for liba52 is broken in the unstable mplayer package (even with a build from scratch without any patch).
I'm unable to find what is exactly wrong. Because upstream author doesn't accept my bug report, you simply need to wait for a working release...

If this repository is too slow for you, use a mirror.
