[vlc-devel] vlc plugin compilation issues in master

[Gilles Sabourin]

Hello,

I am not sure if this is the good place to report compilation issues with vlc 
plugin, Moreover, the plugin was recently reworked and I am not sure if the 
work is finished. I may guess incorrectly as the NEWS file was also updated.

Anyway, the compilation ends with the following:

make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/packages/BUILD/vlc-beta-
mozillaplugin-3.0.0'
Making all in common
make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/packages/BUILD/vlc-beta-
mozillaplugin-3.0.0/common'
  CXX      vlc_player.lo
In file included from vlc_player.cpp:22:0:
vlc_player.h:24:25: fatal error: vlcpp/vlc.hpp: No such file or directory
 #include <vlcpp/vlc.hpp>
                         ^
compilation terminated.

So, I wanted to know here if this was simply a miss, and removed myself the 
previous include since the file was removed long time ago, and I got more 
missing class definitions:
