I guess backporting libc6 2.8 to lenny is nearly impossible, so I think its not possible anymore to build nice DEBS of VLC for Lenny as you did.<br /><br />Could you please make them accessible again somewhere?<br /><br />Thanks!Lorishttp://www.callofduty5waw.frnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115236289668114915.post-88693075586832967022009-04-07T12:27:00.000+03:002009-04-07T12:27:00.000+03:00You can obtain a tarball of the unsigned DEBs that...You can obtain a tarball of the unsigned DEBs that I built to install VLC 0.9.8 on Debian Lenny at: <BR/><BR/>http://files.filefront.com/VLC+Debian+Lennytargz/;13547163;/fileinfo.html<BR/><BR/>This is Free Software and comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.<BR/><BR/>I have done my best to produce a set of DEBs that will enable you to easily install VLC 0.9.8 on Debian Lenny. I have tested them on two different machines and I believe that they are safe, but I cannot not provide any guarantee that they will work for you. If these DEBs break your system, you get to keep the pieces.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8115236289668114915.post-12317975369851194902009-03-25T05:48:00.000+02:002009-03-25T05:48:00.000+02:00I agree.
