Breezy's vlc was compiled with GTK+ 1.2 support instead of the newer
GTK+ 2.8 due to locale-handling bugs both in the widget set
(wxwidgets2.6, which uses GTK+ 2.8) and in vlc itself. These bugs have
since been fixed in the most recent stable release of vlc, which is in
Dapper. An earlier preliminary snapshot has been backported from Dapper
to Breezy, so use the breezy-backports repository.
