Fedora - Can't install/update VLC


Initially, I was trying to update VLC. I ended up uninstalling it to reinstall it.

Typing yum install vlc outputs :

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Here is the output of uaname -a :

Linux happydev 4.1.13-100.fc21.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 10 13:13:20 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am willing to move forward, but I am not sure what to do, nor what to DuckDuckGo for. Any suggestion is most welcome !

EDIT

Most probably, the reason is that Fedora 21 is no longer maintaining its dependency to VLC. I am upgrading to Fedora 23 and will post the outcome here.


Solution

  • Yes, upgrading the from Fedora 21 to Fedora 23 solved the issue
