I think RPM-Fusion Free comes enabled by default for Workstation, could be wrong It is probably better the keep "free" in, so that it is clear which repo to install. The note abt "more info here" is fine Seems a bit redundant to create another Line 99: Keep it as "newer" instead of "older/newer", as this applies for that version and beyond, not the older ones No other problems that I see otherwise. A good first PR :) |
First of all, thanks for reviewing my PR and giving your valuable time.
As for RPM-Fusion repo, it's not enabled by default. I know because I'm using fedora workstation, writing this comment from it xD
I didn't find any tutorial of adding just "free" repo only, so to give more info to the users I stated what the command actually does. It adds both "free" and "non-free" repos to the fedora.
Thanks, but if you find it redundant too, I can change it.
If you're talking about the official repo mpv, mpv folder doesn't exist in ~/.config directory when you install it for the first time. Once you install mpv then play a video it will auto create the mpv folder. Btw it's also the same for flatpak mpv. Still you find it not so clear I'll change it to what you'd say :-)
Thanks for pointing that, I'll change it to "newer" or maybe wait until admin give us some feedback. xD |
Looks great. As I am not familiar with Fedora, we can merge when you think it is ready and tweak it before the next release version if necessary. |
Update GLSL_Instructions_Linux.md
Np mate :) I think rest of the stuff seems fine, should we add Snap Support while we are at it? Idt a lot of ppl use Snaps, but still it shouldn't be a reason to exclude em |
I don't know much about snaps because I never used them. I'll add a note about this issue, as we stated to use mpv build not prior to the June 2021 in the guide, both versions are old and might not work with current shaders. Thanks. |
Added a note for Debian/Ubuntu distro. Added flatpak setup guide link.

Do we really need to teach a linux user to use the Package Manager to install a software?

why not, there's already instructions for others package managers for other distro ? what about newbies that rely more on GUI for package manager ? This kind of elitism has no place in a PR comment imo.

elitism? It's boring game that taging sb with the strange labels.
I think we could simplify some unnecessary ins. |
weird that this PR is still up
certain distros have mpv under different names, shouldnt be an issue as it is trivial to figure out what the package is named in ur distro. flatpak is mostly encouraged anyways. i think this should suffice most of the linux users. i dont want to be teaching a gentoo user how to install mpv. |
