What parts do you want to rip out, only the parts that prevent vlc from
compiling if you use proper lib{avformat,avcodec,postproc}-dev build-
depends or the questionably non-free portions or both? The first is
impossible due to libpostproc-dev being in multiverse; the second is
the impetus for Sebastian's e-mail.

It's the only solution, as either Sebastian or I can see, to resolve
both the license and build-dep issues.

I have no idea why libpostproc-dev is in multiverse as opposed to
universe.
