# Mandrake

## Mandrake 10.1 or above (inc. cooker)

Freevo 1.5 is part of Mdk10.1 or above. You just have to run

    urpmi freevo

Note: you may have to configure software repositories for urpmi. There is a wizard called easy urpmi to assist in this task (see http://www.urpmi-addmedia.org/). You should have sources for PLF and Contrib.

Note: There's a problem with the PIL library on mandrake 10.1 so if you can't see images thumbnails or folders the problem may come from there.

To get it to work, downgrade the python-imaging package on Mandrake to release #3 (python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk) which can be found in the main RPMS tree of the mandrake 10.0 version and works like a charm.

do as root :

    # urpme python-imaging
    # curl
    ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/mandrakelinux/official/10.0/i586/Mandrake
    /RPMS/python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm -o python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm
    # urmpi python-imaging-1.1.4-3mdk.i586.rpm

(Example with a German repositorie of mandrake 10.0, for an i586 install)

Note: Mandrake 10.1 comes with freevo version 1.5.1. As of 25 Jan 2005 updated packages are available for cooker (1.5.3 at the moment).
