I was trying to install the python bindings for VLC, but it failed with a
weird
error:
NameError: name 'sys_platform' is not defined
This was distribute_setup.py that was out of date, patch 1.
Secondly, when you install a python package in one very much used way
(referencing the package in your requirements.txt file for pip), you don't
have
access to the include/ files. Since there's always a usable pre-generated
vlc.py file included. That is patch 2.
Sorry for sending to potentially the wrong list, but I didn't find a
mailing
list for the python bindings here:
http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc/bindings/python.git;a=summary
I was also unable to use git-send-email, it kept coming up with new,
wonderful error messages. Hopefully gmail won't break it too bad.
