Hi,

Attempts to (re)install ffmpeg and libavcodec resulted in errors. After adding --allowerasing and --skip-broken to the command I got the following output:

> sudo dnf install ffmpeg libavcodec-free --allowerasing --skip-broken Laatste metadata-expiratie-check: 0:02:04 geleden op di 13 sep 2022 12:27:48 CEST. Pakket libavcodec-free-5.0.1-11.fc36.x86_64 is al geïnstalleerd. Afhankelijkheden opgelost.

Probleem: pakket ffmpeg-libs-5.0.1-3.fc36.x86_64 conflicteert met libavcodec-free aangeboden door libavcodec-free-5.0.1-11.fc36.x86_64

After removing libswscale-free, the next attempt to install ffmpeg learned me that there were conflicts with libswresample. After removing libswresample, I was able to reinstall ffmpeg but I still cannot install libavcodec, due to conflicts with ffmpeg-libs.

I also tried to reinstall libswscale and libswresample but both installs tried to remove ffmpeg, ffmpwg-libs and libavdevice. > sudo dnf install libswscale-free-devel --allowerasing Laatste metadata-expiratie-check: 0:34:56 geleden op di 13 sep 2022 12:35:20 CEST. Afhankelijkheden opgelost.

What is the best way to resolve the conflicts (and reinstall libswscale and libswresample)

Ben

After a reboot everything seems to be working. I don't know if it was the reboot or the removal of libwscale or libresample which solved the problem.
