[packman] opus-tools dependency for h264enc-9.7.5-134.1 in openSUSE 12.2 x86_64 is missing

[Hans-Peter Jansen]

Hi Carl,

thanks for the answer. 

Unfortunately, installing an untrusted rpm, build for an unknown environment 
by unknown people is not an acceptable solution:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10573557/opus-tools/opus-tools-0.1.7-1.1.x86_64.rpm

However, I found https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/multimedia:libs/opus-tools, that looks better. I've added this repo now. Let's see, how updating 
alsa and pulseaudio is going to behave.

My issue is: Packman should tell people about dependent repos. Traditionally, 
such issues where solved by providing the missing package itself though the 
packman channels.. I can deal with concurring packages from several repos, but 
an average user may not.

Cheers,
Pete
