Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-06-22 08:44:54 UTC 
emerge -C vlc
emerge vlc
Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-06-22 08:48:03 UTC 
the blocker is there to avoid the new vlc from using the current installed vlc's headers / and libraries. otherwise you end up with broken installation. 

however it's been a while since this has been tested, so you can remove the !!<=media-video/vlc... lines from the vlc ebuilds, redigest, and emerge and test it.

let us know if that works, thanks!

if it doesn't, then Comment #1 applies.
