Le Tue 02 Feb 10 à 10:05 +0100, Reinhard Tartler a écrit : The slightly good news is that due to the modular nature of vlc if you remove libavc1394-0 and libraw1394-11 forcefully you won't break vlc (you should keep libdvbpsi however . It's needed to play MPEG2 TS files) Oh I thought that's exactly the situation where one could differentiate dependencies, and have vlc-nox only Recommends: libavc1394-0 and libraw1394-11 (because vlc can do without, and if they're just recommendend I could uninstall them without fiddling with the package management); This does only work if vlc was loading those libraries at runtime. If that is/was indeed the case, then we could do somthing similar like in the xine-lib package ages ago. If vlc is linked dynamically at those libs, then it would crash at startup as ld-linux.so would fail to bootstrap the image. xtophe, can you clarify here? VLC laods its modules at runtime so technically we could move all the depends to recomends except libvlc, libvlccore, libc6, libpthread, libdbus, libdl, libhal and libm But you'll have a pretty useless vlc. So in any case we are back to quantifying how important a module is. Then for not important module we have the choice of: - Putting it in its own package (vlc-plugin-dv, vlc-plugin-bonjour) - Grouping some modules in one package (vlc-extra-access, vlc-extra-servicediscoveries) - Relaxing some depends to recommends The third solution would bring some packaging fun . (Hmmm checking dpkg-shlibdeps' manpage there is some option to manage that) I'm also not sure if all the users would realise the Recomends are quite important. But we could try to educate them in reportbug control files. -- Xtophe ___ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers

Re: Fix for TEMP-0000000-002932 and VideoLAN-SA-0901
Hello, Yes technically it can theoritically overflow with an very malformed AVI (i.e. more malformed that the ones trigerring VideoLAN-SA-0901) However on my simple test (attached) it doesn't wrap up to a negative value but produce a large integer. I'm not sure if we can rely on that feature of the compiler. It can't wrap to a negative value as it is promoted to unsigned. But it can wrap to something which is sizeof(str) I think. No proper fix for an integer overflow in my opinion.

Re: [SCM] libdvbpsi packaging branch, master, updated. b8b913257f6a46be0dcb111eee942f8730543f48
Hello, Imported Upstream version 0.1.7 As you'll see from the other commits, it brings a SONAME change. to make things even more interresting the name of the source package and the name of the -dev package have changed. (Both to remove the soname from it). So it will need to go through NEW. Both vlc and dvblast build-depends on: libdvbpsi5-dev | libdvbpsi-dev already. That's the only packages depending on libdvbpsi on Debian. Could someone check on Ubuntu ? So we can safely upload to sid. But until we revert the order pbuilder won't pick the new libdvbpsi if it has the choice of the old and new. I'm trying to confirm with upstream but there is no major new features or bugfixes. It's more a collection of small stuffs over the last 2 years. So there is no rush. So I propose to upload to sid rather than experimental and invert the order (libdvbpsi-dev | libdvbpsi5-dev) at the next upload of dvblast and vlc. For vlc it will be vlc 1.1.0(-rc) hopefully in a fortnight.

Re: squeeze VLC amd64 MP4 playback still broke
I'm running testing on AMD64 and I've just apt-get dist-upgraded this morning. I was happy to see vlc getting updated but MP4 playback is broken for me and has been for the last month or two. When I originally installed squeeze a few months ago, vlc MP4 playback was working fine but then an update from a while ago caused the playback of MP4 files to be rotated 90 degrees to the left and squashed up into about one third of the horizontal window space available. Note that I can still play MP4s fine under (s)mplayer and that I'm using the FOSS radeon (not radeonhd) xorg driver. Please report bugs the correct way i.e. with reportbug. My bet is that you have some unofficial libavcodec or libavutil package installed.

Le Fri 20 Aug 10 à 20:37 -0400, Dave Witbrodt a écrit : Then I noticed that vlc was still remembering the old recent files playlist from stuff I had played on version 1.0.6. But if I had blown away the config files, how was it remembering? So, maybe there are other config files, right? A quick find -name '*vlc*' in $HOME found a directory called '.config/vlc'. Moving that out of the way restored video. All the video formats I have files to test have worked, so everything was actually just fine all along. Scanning for tips about this in /usr/share/doc/vlc/{changelog,NEWS,README}* revealed no direct statement that configs were incompatible between versions 1.0* and 1.1*. What baffles me is: how could they be incompatible, since they moved? Maybe vlc looks in both places now? Does it get confused if it finds old configs and tries to use them? The change actually happened between 0.9.x and 1.0.x . But config files shouldn't create problem like that. Do you happen to still have the old config file ? I'd be interrested by having it ( or a diff -u with the new config file) Can we please have something about this in the vlc man pages and/or /usr/share/doc/vlc?
