[vlc-devel] vlc 4.0and 3.0.1 link failed with libdsm (contrib)

[Gilles Sabourin]

Hello team,

When compiling libaccess_output_livehttp_plugin.la, linker cannot link. This 
previously succeeded last 3rd february but failed next saturday, 10th 
february. This could be related to libdsm issue from contrib, as the following 
commit started modifications :

* c7b275f1c9 : Thomas Guillem : Fri Feb 9 20:39:23 2018 +0100 : contrib: 
enable libdsm| 
|  contrib/src/libdsm/rules.mak | 1 +
|  1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)

Same issue with vlc 3.0.1 as the commit has been backported.
