I'm trying to install xine on my Red Hat 7.3 system
but I've got a dependencies problem.
>From http://freshrpms.net  I got the xine rpm files
for RH 7.3
xine-0.9.13-fr1.i386.rpm and
xine-libs-0.9.13-fr2.i386.rpm
First, I tried to install xine-0.9.13-fr1.i386.rpm
in /usr/local/ using   rpm -ivh 
 but it needed libraries.
No problem, I thought, and tried to install the
libraries in /usr/local
rpm -ivh xine-libs-0.9.13-fr2.i386.rpm
NO!  It will not install without
 libaa.so.1
So I went back to the net and searched around
and found  http://www.nognu.org/libaa/
and got  libaa-0.9.4.tar.gz
After the usual ./configure, make, make install,
I got some libraries created in
/usr/local/libaa-0.9.4/src/.libs
None of them are named  libaa.so.1  Dah?
Worse, the xine-libs-0.9.13-fr2.i386.rpm still
refuses to install and demands libaa.so.1
   Can anyone tell me what I can do, if anything,
to install xine on Red Hat 7.3  ?
