Comment 3 for bug 1084054

Is this a proposal to backport VLC 2.0.4 in LTS? PulseAudio support in VLC 2.0.4 is BROKEN. Please do not do that.

If you want VLC 2.0.4 there, you really really really should add the following patches (from vlc-2.0.git):

PulseAudio fixes:

(depends on http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc/vlc-2.0.git;a=commit;h=e5075a80e1000eca63076c8a657262feb2579e02 )

Arguably, you should just take the tip of vlc-2.0.git or convince upstream to ship a version 2.0.5...
