Same here. Using amd64, stable (except, obviously for vlc and a few other packages).
I could put -fPIC as asked in my GCC flags, but I don't really want to, if it really needs it, the ebuild should be fixed ? |

It's a known problem being worked on.
In the mean time, remove the installed copy and reinstall, rather than upgrade.

What do you mean, should we unmerge the current (0.8.5) VLC version, and then merge the 0.8.6 ?
I don't understand how that will make a difference, but I can try... |

Thx, that worked for me too. Don't understand why though...
When we update VLC, some file of the old version are used during its construction? |

Sort of, it relinks the binaries at the end and use the wrong libvlc.a file, causing the failure.
The problem is I cannot reproduce the problem anymore, so I cannot see to fix it till I can reproduce it.
