Taking a look at http://packages.ubunut.com/lucid/graphics/vlc it
indicates the version there is 1.0.4.
However when I install from Lucid Universe, I am seeing that it is
version 1.0.3.
I am using the following apt spurces:
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid main restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid main restricted
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security main
restricted
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security main
restricted
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid universe
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid universe
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-updates universe
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-updates universe
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security universe
deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid-security universe
(Trying to install vlc-nox from Universe without restricted results in
unmet dependencies, of coursse)
Also, dpkg -l | grep vlc indicates:
ii libvlc2
1.0.4-2ubuntu1 multimedia player and
streamer library
ii libvlccore2
1.0.4-2ubuntu1 base library for VLC and
its modules
rc vlc
1.0.3-1ubuntu2 multimedia player and
streamer
ii vlc-data
1.0.4-2ubuntu1 Common data for VLC
ii vlc-nox
1.0.4-2ubuntu1 multimedia player and
streamer (without X su

Need to get 1,625kB/7,572kB of archives. After unpacking 23.3MB will
be used.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n/?]
My main question then is why vlc is being listed as 1.0.3, and not
1.0.4. I am also trying to confirm whether the version in the repo is
compiled with/without dv support. It seems to be lacking it, but that
puzzles me, as it's very commonly used. The versions of Kino & dvgrab
in Lucid support dv *o.o.b.*
Any insight into this would be appreciated.
cheers,
