Bug#605638: vlc: need versioned build-deps

Package: vlc
Version: 1.1.3-1
Severity: minor

If I try to build vlc with older versions of some libraries installed (like 
the ones from lenny) I get the following configure errors

configure: error: Library libraw1394 >= 2.0.1 libdc1394-2 >= 2.1.0 needed 
for dc1394 was not found

configure: error: Library libpulse >= 0.9.11 needed for pulse was not found

configure: error: Library libmtp >= 1.0.0 needed for mtp was not found

Also I get the following build error

audio.c: In function 'GetVlcAudioFormat':
audio.c:488: error: 'SAMPLE_FMT_DBL' undeclared (first use in this function)
audio.c:488: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
audio.c:488: error: for each function it appears in.)

which is supposedly solved by using libavcodec52 rather than libavcodec51.

So I think these build-deps need to be versioned.

Thanks,
