[ATrpms-users] mythmusic error???

[hondaman]

Yeah, I figured it out.  Its a conflict with Livnas package.

Just kind of a mini-rant in general, but...

Repository conflicts should have been a problem of linux circa 2002,
but sadly its still a problem.  With the great steps linux has taken
over the years, its frustrating for end users to have to deal with
this.  With all due respect and thanks to the people who make these
repositories (livna, atrpms, etc) possible, I think these same people
should reconsider their priorities, putting us the users first, and
their own ego somewhere a couple hundred places below that.
