Install Democracy Player (Internet TV) on FC5

I've been using the democracy player under OSX and Windows for the last several versions which seemed very unstable. The Linux version just became available under beta... but seemed pretty stable on testing.

If you are using Fedora Core 5, then the installation is a breeze.

1. If you have not setup yum for downloading from livna repository, you can do so by adding the repo file -- "/etc/yum.repo.d/livna.repo":
   

   [livna]
   name=Livna for Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base
   baseurl=http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch
   failovermethod=priority
   mirrorlist=http://rpm.livna.org/mirrorlist-5
   enabled=0
   gpgcheck=1
   

   Import the gpg keys.

   # rpm --import http://rpm.livna.org/RPM-LIVNA-GPG-KEY
   

2. Install the dependencies:

   # yum --enablerepo=livna --enablerepo=extras install \
         boost xine-lib libfame gnome-python2-gtkmozembed gnome-python2-gconf Pyrex
   

3. Install the democracy player:

   # rpm -ivh http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/pculture.org/democracy/linux/fc5/Democracy-0.8.2-1.i386.fc5.rpm
   

The install will place a shortcut under "Sound & Video". ENJOY!!
