  Don’t forget to package phonon-vlc, Qt’s back-end to play back sounds and videos via libvlc. It requires VLC 1.1, so packaging it by the same person certainly makes sense.

  I agree. this should fly in the repo as well. I’ll start working on this package and I think that together with the 1.1 release of VLC the package will be available (but probably untested by me, as I do not use phonon) So looking forward to your tests here

  Hi!
  Excuse me disturbing you (on holiday ). Where can I find an “official vlc 1.0.6 opensuse” installable version? I should downgrade because the 1.0.99 version has some errors. I have tried the opensuse repositories and

  http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/3/limit/12/srodzaj/1/dl/40/search/vlc/field/1/field/2

  but I could not fond the proper version.

  Regards
  Michael

  Michael, No worries. There is no holiday here at the moment. So no disturbance
  As for vlc 1.0.6: those packages are outdated with 1.1.0 being released in a very short time. And without a report on what is broken (compared to what worked in 1.0.6) chances might be low to get it fixed
  As for 1.0 series: I might give it a try and package up vlc-legacy for a short time, so you could at least to your things. But it will take a short while (mainly build process time)

  Thank you for quick answer.
  The 1.0.6 outdated… but worked. My complaint is here:

  http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=77089&p=254097#p254097

  I have a series of scripts and all of them became useless. It happened 1 week ago and I cannot downgrade.

  And – tell the truth – I have never heard on that solution when the developers change the NAME of the existing, tested programs, modules, variables, etc. after launching an official version (telnet to oldtelnet, I mean) as the vlc developers did (as they say, because of the environment change). What about the existing scripts, programs on the rest of the world which were builded into it as I did?

  And – I think – they could not rebuild the whole castle if they wanted to change the doors and windows on the building… … the test is as valuable as the code, I think (never touch the running system ).

  I tried the 1.2.0, but ti is also wrong (other error).

  The problem solved, the version downgraded, works perfectly.
  All thanks for Dominique.

  Hello Dominique,

  I’m experiencing similar troubles with 1.1.1 (and 1.2.0 as well) like venember. Could it be possible to share VLC 1.0.6 binaries for OpenSUSE 11.2? I’m in a big trouble as my program does not work now and I cannot fix it. Please help me.

  Thanks a lot,
  Michal
