Hello, The VLC package in [extra] was recently split into multiple subpackages (vlc, vlc-plugin-*, vlc-gui-*, etc.). This change adjusts dependencies, separates plugins, and alters installation paths. It affects not only VLC users but also other packages and third-party scripts that depend on VLC.
This change has already caused multiple issues for me and others I know. Because the update may cause missing functionality, playback failures, or broken dependencies, and given its wide impact, I suggest posting an announcement on the Arch-announce mailing list so users are aware of the change before updating and can make necessary adjustments.
