Please try the ~x86 version. Chris, maybe declare 0.7.2-r1 stable for x86? Can't be much worse than 0.6.x...
What do you means by trying the ~x86 version (what is ~x86?) ? And how I do it ?
For the details please check http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=3&chap=3 - for now, try ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge vlc
thanx a lot Patrick, it works fine with the unstable version. Even on the vlc home site (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-gentoo.html), they tell to take the unstable version with gentoo ^^ Anyway, it's solve my problem, but a good idea to put the 0.8 version in stable version :)
