This is an old variant. I think 'zypper dup' is required to replace
old version 2.2.1-305.1 with the current version 2.2.1-131.3.

Indeed "zypper dup --from packman" has 'downgraded' the vlc packages to the actual current ones and now everything's fine.

This is just feedback, please don't take it as me being non-appreciative of the work Packman repo maintainers do, but i would suggest trying to avoid issues like this (lower versioning of new packages, etc.) in future. I would like to able to offer openSUSE Leap with Packman on systems i provide, but i need to be confident that the GUI updater is going to 'just work', and not require this type of manual intervention.

Again, just feedback, if using the Packman repo comes with an expectation that the user will be able to handle some manual intervention now and then, fair enough and so be it, i'll figure out something else for my purposes.
