`VLC media player 2.0.5 Twoflower (revision 2.0.5-0-g1661b7d)
process 20124: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.
D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
Aborted
If having trouble installing ffmpeg was not enough, the above output is what getting trying to install vlc.
All I did was download the linuxtech.repo to /etc/yum.repos.d/ followed by yum install vlc
Others have had same problem so tried downloading and installing dbus because there is nothing in dbus folder. So I yum removed and reinstalled, still nothing in folder.
Please does anyone know what is going on besides my being an obvious idiot? `
