</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> As demonstrated by <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2977">https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2977</A>
</I>&gt;<i> where updating mencoder from the Core Release version to the
</I>&gt;<i> Tainted Release version is failing, as the libtwolame package
</I>&gt;<i> is not available to the Tainted Release repository.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> We are going to have to go through all of the packages in the
</I>&gt;<i> Tainted Release repository, and every dependency that those
</I>&gt;<i> packages have, that are not dependencies in the Core Release
</I>&gt;<i> version, will have to be linked to Tainted Release.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Note that these link requests will be requests to link
</I>&gt;<i>  from Core Release to Tainted Release, not Tainted Release Updates.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Can links be done to from Core Releaes to Tainted Release?
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I know the Release repositories are not supposed to change
</I>&gt;<i> after release.  The other option, would be to release a tainted
</I>&gt;<i> update, for any package like mencoder where there are dependencies
</I>&gt;<i> missing in tainted release.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>
I think we must not touch the media regarding this issue which happens only 
when a user sets Tainted Release as an update media. While this may be a valid 
choice from them, this will be too painful to solve using the &quot;linking&quot; 
method, so the real answer is fixing bug #2317 so that MageiaUpdate is able to 
pull the needed dependencies.
