Maybe we can have it renamed to "Severely Crippled VLC". It would be a closer match to it's functionality as it is supplied from factory.
Or it can just be set not to publish at all.
The better fix would be to make vlc clearly state why it cannot play certain files. xine for example has a patch added that displays a different screen when run with a restricted set of codecs. However, atm vlc isn't in Factory at all. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
