It smells like some package installed it but failed to remove it when that package is subsequently installed. I'd like to file a bug. But not sure on the package name. raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I would assume that it is harmless and auto-generated upon updates/upgrades of either VLC or plugins for VLC.
