Package: vlc
Version: 2.0.8-1
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: Policy 2.5
Dear Maintainer,
In vlc versions before 2.0.3-5 , there was a linking issue which immediately crashed vlc on a live system, saying, "[0x220e108] main libvlc error: No plugins found! Check your VLC installation."
One workaround I've found out is linking:
"VLC_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib/vlc/plugins/ vlc"
In version 2.0.3-5, this problem had been solved, in version 2.0.8-1, it has been reintroduced.
P.S.:
(I gave this report a high priority since it is especially troublesome to users who know no workaround)
