Public bug reported:
VLC opens fine the first time after installing the package, but after
closing it, and opening any media file through vlc, it segfaults.
Opening vlc without a media file works fine, but drag and drop a media
file on it: segfault. Here's the console output:
vlc ./Media.File.Name.Hidden.mkv
VLC media player 1.1.12 The Luggage (revision exported)
Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_ADDRESS")
Blocked: call to unsetenv("DBUS_ACTIVATION_BUS_TYPE")
[0x735120] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to
use vlc without interface.

(process:9300): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Blocked: call to setenv("_PX_CONFIG_ORDER", "", 1)
Segmentation fault
Same error upon drag and drop too.
Interestingly, deleting the vlc folder in ~/.config, and then starting
vlc, works totally fine. But same problem manifests after it is closed.
** Affects: vlc (Ubuntu)
