Michael (and the
rpm.livna.org maintainer), please see my brand-new
HOWTO
on this topic:
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Fedora-Multimedia-Installation-HOWTO/index.html
I found I had to add freshrpms in order to get apt. I needed apt in order
to get jre RPMs from Dag Wieers's repository.
I would actually like to recommend livna only in my HOWTO, but there
are things it lacks. If livna wants to be the one-stop shop for
everything proprietary and patented that isn't in Fedora Core (which
is where it seems to be heading, and I heartily approve), then it
needs to carry the following:
Java jre RPMs (see Dag Wieers's repostory)
mame and mame ROM RPMs
XMame is totally free and legal, isn't it ? Mame ROMS are illegal
though, and not only in the US (this is not a software patent problem).
RealPlayer RPMs (see
http://cambuca.ldhs.cetuc.puc-rio.br/xine/)
Win32 binary-codec RPMs to be used with mplayer
How about Flash plugin and libdvdcss ?
