I'm following this tutorial to install ffmpeg on my server. When I'm configuring the source I get the problem:

ffmpeg headers not found.

In that tutorial they say:

To Fix: Just install ffmpeg-devel using

yum install ffmpeg-devel

But if I try to enter that line, I get this error:

Error: Package: librtmp-2.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
            Require: libgnutls.so.26()(64bit)
Error: Package: librtmp-2.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
            Require: libgnutls.so.26(GNUTLS_1_4)(64bit)

But I don't know how install libgnutls.so.26. I can't find this package on my repo. What can I do?

    Adding the EL6 version of rpmforge to a EL7 system is asking for a broken server.

    Stop following that tutorial. It's ancient, out of date, and will not work. Apr 12, 2015 at 16:29

In case somebody else finds this post because they're figuring out how to install ffmpeg on their CentOS 7 system, this blog post has everything you need: http://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/install-ffmpeg-centos-7/

Core commands, just in case the site goes down, are: yum -y install epel-release rpm --import http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/RPM-GPG-KEY-nux.ro rpm -Uvh http://li.nux.ro/download/nux/dextop/el7/x86_64/nux-dextop-release-0-1.el7.nux.noarch.rpm yum -y install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel

    li.nux.ro doesn't look like a legit site to me. Buyer beware? Nov 27, 2017 at 20:21

I had a issue where i could not run a program due to libgnutls.so.26 being missing. Simply installing gnu utils did the trick.

yum install gnutls
