Don't understand this maneuver.  I haven't had to perform it.  But I also
do not use videolan repo; I use packman except for the codecs.  Also, istr
that there was problems mixing videolan/packman but do not know if that is
still true.

I have not noticed this but recently have used clementine for streaming
rather than vlc and may have missed noticing.....
