JFTR: while the presence of a simple workaround indeed warrants
lowering the severity of this issue, I believe that the problem
being described shouldn't arise at all.
Hence, either the Debian Live scripts should somehow set this
variable by default, or the “relocation” logic is indeed patched
out of the Debian vlc-nox package, for the sake of better Aufs
(and thus Debian Live) compatibility.
(To note is that vlc-nox upgrades from within the Debian Live
environment seem much more likely than attempts to run the
binaries provided by this Debian package off their usual
filesystem location.)
