If you really don't need these libraries, there's a way. Check opera binary with ldd. If you see that it is linked with gstreamer0.10-plugins-good libraries, you're out of luck. Now, if they don't (i.e they use dlopen(3) instead of compile-time linking) - just use equivs to make a fake gstreamer0.10-plugins-good package, install it, and you're set. Repeat the process once Jessie becomes stable. > What is the difference between a "configuration system" and a > "configuration database system", excepted that the second one uses a > database (which are tools made to handle lot of data and not > configurations, as the name shows: data base, not configuration base > btw) ? You're both right and wrong IMO. You're right, as there's no noticeable difference between a 'configuration system' and a 'configuration database' both to a user (they're given tools) and for a developer (they're given API). You're wrong by defining a database as something that handles a lot of data. For example, /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group are their own database of users and groups (see getent(1)) with a real primary key - foreign key dependencies along each other. This database even has some utilities to work with it (useradd, usermod, passwd to name a few). And you've picked the wrong part of the quote. It's the 'functionally similar to the Windows registry' part which makes me feel uneasy :) Reco -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
