[vlc] Lost GUI on Linux daily build but found now

[John Anderson]

I tried the daily build on my RH9 Linux machine but lost the GUI interface
that I had in ver 0.7.1.  I'm a bit of a newb at Linux development but I
finally managed to figure out where my GUI went.  It turned out that it
couldn't find the libwx_gtk-2.4.so library.  After futzing around and
reading a few books on Linux programming I did the following and it worked.

1) I added the line "/usr/local/lib" to /etc/ld.so.conf
2) Ran /sbin/ldconfig to update ld.so.cache

After that the user interface came up.  Can anyone comment as to why it was
necessary to add an ld path to /user/local/bin?  And why did it used to work
on 0.7.1?
