Dear Sebastian, I just tried to "dkpg-reconfigure vlc" but it still refuses to run. I tried to login again. I also reinstalled the removed packages libpau-... but no effect. Graphics like the cube effect when changing the active desktop was disturbed pretty much. Many KDE stuff crashed, like krunner, kinit5, it was in a state where I couldn't do much else then shutting down. (Yesterday I had a similar effect - yesterday all possibilities of opening a program and the desktop itself crashed but the cube effect worked.) Then I reinstalled vlc and all the plugins with "apt-get install --reinstall ..." but no effect even after doing dpkg-reconfigure again.
When I tried to remove or purge vlc it wants to remove quite essential KDE stuff (see below). Maybe some dependencies are broken or rather messed up?! This reminds me to the fresh installed Debian. When I installed it two weeks ago using the actual netinst iso and redirected sources.list to testing the dist-upgrade uninstalled important stuff leading in a circle of uninstalling it via autoremove and installing it again via dist-upgrade while marking it as auto-removable. I was able to find out it did not install (or uninstalled during the dist-upgrade - I don't know) the task-kde-desktop. It only installed (or left) the german localized kde tasks.
