Backup of VLC repositories for Suse 10.2

Do not use this method of backing up repositories since I wanted to remember what I did so I wrote this one I tried to search the folders where yast downloads its files but I could not find them so looked in
/var/log/YaST2/y2logRPM
there you will find the entries

these are the files that were downloaded when you had added to yast --> software management-->vlc in sources and packages section

you can manually download all these files that I have explained here in this tutorial



make a folder named vlc in /root i.e. #mkdir /root/vlc/


download the following files for vlc in /root/vlc from site http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/SuSE/10.2/i586/

a52dec-0.7.4-2.2.i586.rpm
libmpeg2-0.4.1.1149-3.1.i586.rpm
libdvbpsi-0.1.5-1.2.i586.rpm
libmad-0.15.1b-2.2.i586.rpm
lame-3.97-3.1.i586.rpm
faac-1.25-2.2.i586.rpm
faad2-2.5-2.2.i586.rpm
x264-0.54.598-2.2.i586.rpm
ffmpeg-0.4.9.9778-4.1.i586.rpm
vlc-0.8.6c-3.2.i586.rpm
vlc-devel-0.8.6c-3.2.i586.rpm



now take your installation DVD or CD and copy the following dependencies from them i586 and no arch folders to /roor/vlc directory

rest of the files that I have mentioned are on the DVD or CD of Open Suse 10.2 there are two separate folders go to i586 folder inside directory sue you will get following files

libcddb-1.3.0-11.i586.rpm
libdvdnav-0.1.10-34.i586.rpm
libdvdread-0.9.6-21.i586.rpm
libmspack-0.0.20060920alpha-10.i586.rpm
xosd-2.2.12-38.i586.rpm
libraw1394-1.2.1-20.i586.rpm
libcdio-0.77-15.i586.rpm
libdc1394-2.0.0-21.i586.rpm
libsexy-0.1.5-37.i586.rpm
wxGTK-2.6.3.3-30.i586.rpm
notification-daemon-0.3.5-23.i586.rpm
vcdimager-0.7.23-39.i586.rpm
libnotify-0.4.2-22.i586.rpm


now go to noarch folder of suse directory you will get these 2 files
freefont-0.20060718-28.noarch.rpm
iso-codes-0.49-38.noarch.rpm

Now just go to /root/vlc where you have made your backup for these repositories and just install these rpms
