update pack 4 - clem is it possible to update to vlc 2.0.1

Post by scottlinux »

Update Pack 4 currently uses vlc 2.0.0

vlc 2.0.1 has a few little fixes ( http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=98719)

Clem is it possible to add the updated vlc to the update pack repo?

Testing currently has 2.0.1 that could be pulled down ( http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/vlc )

cheers,

vlc is a complex app with quiet a few deps, furthermore at the moment Clem has a major priority with the release of Mint 13.

and was said several times elsewhere that UP5 would arrive after Maya's release.

VLC is also in the debian-multimedia.org repo. You could change your sources.list to point to Debian testing, install vlc then change them back.

Code: Select all

$ dpkg -l|grep vlc
ii  libvlc5                              1:2.0.1-dmo1                       multimedia player and streamer library
ii  libvlccore5                          1:2.0.1-dmo1                       base library for VLC and its modules
ii  vlc                                  1:2.0.1-dmo1                       multimedia player and streamer
ii  vlc-data                             1:2.0.1-dmo1                       Common data for VLC
ii  vlc-nox                              1:2.0.1-dmo1                       multimedia player and streamer (without X support)
