I would like to use MacPort's libaacs for VLC when playing Blu-ray discs. The 
instructions (as often) assume HomeBrew and library installs in /usr/local.

Quick & Dirty solution: After installing libaacs with MacPorts and performing 
the following copy commands:

cd /opt/local/lib
sudo cp libaacs* libgpg-error.* libgcrypt* libintl.* libiconv.* /usr/local/lib

VLC has all it needs in terms of dynamic libraries for Blu-ray (apart from what 
needs to be installed in ~/Library/Preferences/aacs). This is an imperfect 
solution as it requires manual actions every time after a MacPorts update of 
the same libraries.

A better solution would be to enable VLC to use MacPorts /opt/local. Has anyone 
done this? Without a recompile of VLC maybe?

Thanks.
