[CALUG] VLC - conflicts/circular RPM dependencies?

Hi CALUG,
    Has anyone successfully installed the VLC media player?  I have 
Fedora Core 3
with a 2.6.9 kernel.  As you can see below, the fatal error is "file 
/usr/lib/libvcdinfo.so.0.0.1
conflicts between attempted installs of vcdimager-libvcd-0.7.20-1.1.vlc 
and libvcd-0.7.20-3"
Those two packages are themselves provided in the tarball (contents 
shown below), so that
seems strange.  It's no different if I do the " rpm -U vlc/* --force" as 
specified on the web
page.  If I try to do the individual RPMs, I see;
badger# rpm -U cdinfo-0.71-0.i386.rpm --force
error: Failed dependencies:
        libcdio.so.0 is needed by cdinfo-0.71-0.i386
        libiso9660.so.2 is needed by cdinfo-0.71-0.i386
        libvcdinfo.so.0 is needed by cdinfo-0.71-0.i386
        libvcdinfo.so.0(VCDINFO_0) is needed by cdinfo-0.71-0.i386

although (in the first instance), I see that libcdio.so.3 is installed 
as part of libcdio-0.71-0:
badger# l /usr/lib/libcdio.so.3*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root    16 Jan  3 13:43 /usr/lib/libcdio.so.3 -> 
libcdio.so.3.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 80200 Nov 28  2004 /usr/lib/libcdio.so.3.0.0
badger#

Surely it can't be telling me to revert to libcdio.so.0???  Can anyone offer
any suggestions on this?

Thanks - Ed
