Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.1.svn20050314-1
Severity: normal

Hi!

In helping me tracking down problems with exmh and mailcap, Alex
Zangerl found out that vlc adds broken entries to /etc/mailcap[0].

>From mailcap(5):
   Each individual mailcap entry consists of a content-type specification,
   a  command  to execute, and (possibly) a set of optional "flag" values.

vlc, OTOH, adds entries where a flag field precedes the command, f'rex:
application/ogg; nametemplate=%s.ogg; vlc -I rc -V caca '%s'; needsterminal; 
description="Ogg stream"

which in turn confuses other programs using the mailcap file (like
exmh).

The problem actually stems from .../debian/vlc.mime, where those broken
entries are spelled out.

0: See Bug#339570

cheers,
&rw
