Error with rpmfusion in Fedora 11

[miggymon]

Hello,

I've installed Fedora 11 in an older laptop, and receive the following error when I type:

# rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm

I get:

Retrieving http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-stable.noarch.rpm
warning: /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.wNXNue: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 signature: NOKEY, key ID 16ca1a56
error: Failed dependencies:
system-release >= 12 is needed by rpmfusion-free-release-12-3.noarch

I can only assume that there is a conflict when I try to download the rpm from rpmfusion.
Can anybody help me please?

Thanks.

Try this. I think it should work.

rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/rpmfusion-free-release-11-1.noarch.rpm

Take a look around here, http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/

11 isn't really supported by RPMFusion. You have to do some digging.

I think think there is a conflict among existing fedora 11 files and downloaded fedora 12 files. Try to use Fedora 12. It might resolve your problem.
Thanks.

I suggest you look into the FAQ section on RPM Fusion. It states

What Fedora versions do you support?
RPM Fusion ships packages for RHEL5 (and its derivatives like CentOS, ScientificLinux and other) and all current Fedora versions (including the development branch rawhide).

RPM Fusion follows the end-of-life policy of the respective "upstream" distributions. In practice this means that shortly after the upstream distribution goes EOL, shortly afterwards the corresponding RPM Fusion repository will go EOL, too. Usually the repositories will stay available for longer, but no new packages or package updates will be added to them and users are strongly encouraged to update to a non-EOL distro version. The repositories for EOLed distributions will sooner or later move to a archive page to make room for repositories for newer releases.

Since F11 is already EOL it is no longer supported by RPM Fusion.

rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/rpmfusion-free-release-11-1.noarch.rpm

Thanks, this is the command that worked for me.

This also helps a lot. Thanks!

I know that because Fedora 11 is EOL it is not supported by RPMFusion. However it runs better than the current Fedora 14 on my Compaq Presario R4000. I have yet to try Fedora 12 or 13.

Thanks glennzo, the command

# rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/rpmfusion-free-release-11-1.noarch.rpm

worked as anticipated.

The latter link is also useful for future updates/installs.

Thanks glennzo, the command

# rpm -ivh http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/releases/11/Everything/i386/os/rpmfusion-free-release-11-1.noarch.rpm

got it done.
