Ubuntu 12.04 LTS hasn't reached EOL yet. VLC works fine with EFL on that. If I was a mere user, sure I would stick to stable EFL, I'm a developer. Though previous stable EFLs also had to be told not to use gst1. On the other hand, I'm considering a switch to Debian some day soonish, or something else. -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
