Hi,

3 Issues:

1/ vlc -rc2 is crashing with me. (core dump) I'm trying to reproduce
on another system.
That was not the case with -pre3.

2/ Cache generation failure doesn't need to fail the build:
Patch from rdieter at fedoraproject.org
http://cvs.rpmfusion.org/viewvc/rpms/vlc/devel/?root=free
But that's still strange that if a module fails, then it makes the
cache generation to return an error.
Also, that rather late in the development process, but I'm not
satisfied with the cache dir in located in _prefix/lib
It should be better in /var/cache/vlc. And in case there is two
versions installed in parallels (such as lib32 and lib64 version) the
name-space have to be different.
I'm still trying to figure out.

3/There is a problem *nix system as the desktop icons (either png xpm)
need to be named vlc.{xpm,png} as referenced in the desktop file
(without extension). so the scale need to be removed from the name.
(and the files need to be moved to a subdir in the git source
repository).

It means:
