The next update to glib2 should fix the segfault issues some users experience. https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/?id=2b178c762fbc0706031e9890ba190233e243a602

I've reverted this package to feature parity with the main Arch package and disowned it. I will take my efforts to combat the segfaulting issue myself and others experience to the less prominent vlc-stable-git package (which i personally would prefer to run the stable maintenance branch than the current master branch anyway). I suggest people affected by the plugin cache generation segfault try vlc-stable-git: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vlc-stable-git/

korrode commented on 2014-08-11 20:39 (UTC)

It is the way it is because many people get segfaults when trying to generate the plugin cache, which is done automatically at install time (and when that fails, it segfaults running the app): https://www.google.com.au/search?&safe=off&num=100&q=arch+vlc-cache-gen#q=site%3Abbs.archlinux.org+vlc-cache-gen+%22Segmentation+fault%22&safe=off There seems to be various reasons why different people get this issue. It's not the same plugin causing it for everyone. For now i've just tried to have minimal features enabled that still provide VLC in a state that will do the job for most people. (...which according to jahiy's last comment isn't enough to prevent the issue from occurring for everyone anyway...)

@Kaan, ohh, just looked at pkgbuild, it really looks weird.

Kaan commented on 2014-08-11 12:04 (UTC)

@heaven, what do you mean? I'm talking about git version too, vlc 3 builds fine without disabling anything, this is for @korrode who wanted to know about it.

heaven commented on 2014-08-11 06:32 (UTC)

@Kaan, this is a git build and there's a big difference.

Kaan commented on 2014-08-11 03:14 (UTC)

I reverted everything in the pkg to arch defaults and it builds and runs fine. Why were they even disabled?

Don't know the problem, but I just succeeded with vlc-current-git 2.2.0.git.225.g94eb951-1 or vlc-current-git 3.0.git.225.g94eb951-1 (as it would be called here) Still using this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot because of having both, qt4 and qt5 installed.
