fixed with re-installation of backend and client packages from the SAME repo
Thanks for the update. Though I think it should not matter from which repo the phonon backend comes (as long as it is compatible with the installed vlc version). Anyway, as I wrote I'd recommend to use Packman's version anyway. openSUSE's one should work currently with Packman's vlc (in Leap 42.1 at least, not in 13.2 which comes with vlc 2.1.x...), but it will prevent you from updating vlc when a new (non-bugfix) version will be released. And having Amarok from Packman is probably a good idea either, as it is constantly updated (while the distribution version only gets bugfix and security updates if necessary) and that also makes sure it is built against the latest packages from there. Otherwise there can be problems when Packman upgrades some library that Amarok uses (has happened with e.g. taglib in the past, but ffmpeg might be a candidate as well, though the Leap version will stay at 2.8 anyway I suppose, while Packman uses 3.0 already). Other than that the packages are exactly the same, as they are built from the same source packages (from openSUSE:Factory). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
