Notes for anyone wanting to build Debian packages of VLC.
- Default configuration is supposed to be latest unstable.
- To build for a Debian woody system, first build a tarball using
"make dist-woody".
- Usually VLC will come with a copy of ffmpeg, faad2 and libmpeg2 in the
extras/ directory, because they are not yet available in Debian.
- If there is no CVS directory in the root, debian/rules will assume a
full build is requested and will clean ffmpeg, faad2 and libmpeg2.
- VLC does not link with libdvdcss by default, thus it will not depend
on the libdvdcss packages. However it will use libdvdread that can
optionally open libdvdcss if found. To build packages that link directly
against libdvdcss, remove the --without-dvdcss flag in debian/rules.
