Korrode: I've addressed both of your concerns, thanks for the look over!

git should be a makedepend, not depend. IIRC that sed command you added back to the prepare() function is no longer relevant for VLC git master, and is doing nothing.

Adopted and updated PKGBUILD. You can track the PKGBUILD and other source stuffs at: https://github.com/andrewSC/vlc-git

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/

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.

@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.
