mplayer cannot be installed in current release
The current mplayer package (in 3.3) depends on:
so:libvpx.so.2
so:libx264.so.142
Those versions are respectively provided by the packages:
libvpx-1.4.0-r1
x264-libs-20140625-r0
which are both absent from 3.3, but present in 3.2.
The package should ideally be upgraded to depend on current versions of
the dependencies.
As a side note, creating a symlink /usr/lib/libvpx.so.2 -> libvpx.so.3 is sufficient for the libvpx, but this workaround cannot be applied to the libx264.so.142 since this version of mplayer has `x264_encoder_open_142` in its dynamic symbol table (and that function is absent from the current version of the library).
The current workaround is as follow:
- Define
`` oldstable
http://<mirror>.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.2/main
in your `/etc/apk/repositories file`.libvpx.so.2
bylibvpx.so.3
- Install the mplayer package (with —allow-untrusted)
- Create a symlink /usr/lib/libvpx.so.2 ->libvpx.so.3
