Hi Sebastian, vlc packagers! I'm afraid there is one misleading point here: the name of the package. It's not a lib at all, it just happens to be a plugin which links against a lib. The lib is totally private to the plugin. I'm planning to fix this in Qt 5.6. So basically if you want to use Qt5 and *depend* on X11 you should really consider depending on this plugin. Now I won't play ping-pong with the BTS. I'll let you decide what to do: either reassign this bug back to VLC or I'll close it on a few days. Kinds regards, and the best for 2016, Lisandro. -- So that's it - insecure, indiscriminate, user-hostile, slow, and full of difficult, nit-picking people. Any other online community would count each of these strengths as a terrible flaw. Perhaps wiki works because the other online communities don't.
