Well, running vlc at about the same time as reinstalling it
makes sure that any data you collect is as ambiguous as possible.
So, I just tested it again : this time :
$ vlc myfile.mp4
gave the same error msg as previously, but the result of
ls -ult
was different :
bd@debian-stretch:/usr/local/lib$ ls -ult

16:09 was the time when I first ran ls -ult
16:29 was when I ran
vlc myfile.mp4
and got the usual error message. The other lines kept same time access
as before the call of vlc. Next 4 lines acces times remained unchanged
from that of first call to ls -ult ; however, if one exept the two last
lines, they all where tagged april 30th, that is, today a bit earlier.
Cheers,
Bernard
