Another example: inclusion of mp3 support libraries, but without rebuilding audio players.
If this is the case, wouldn't such a repo be useless?
With things like gstreamer you don't have to rebuild audio apps. gstreamer plugins will plug into the base gstreamer framework and audio apps just make use of whatever plugins are available.
Now if only that were as easy as "yum install gstreamer-plugin-lame" or "yum install lame-plugin-gstreamer" (in case you wanted to do "yum install lame lame-plugin-*").
It is that easy. go to rpm.livna.org and download the correct repository rpm. Once this is installed, type:
yum install gstreamer-plugins-bad
This will install the mp3 codec along with a bunch of other 'bad' codecs.
