Switch to another library is not a suggested thing because with new
functions a new library also drop definitively some other functions or
change them, so if the code is not updated for the new library the
program will have issues (or it will not work).

vlc being compiled with wxwidgets 2.6
I'm lost on your logic. We are using an updated version of wxwidgets, a
minor update 2.6 to 2.8. Not 2.6 to 3.0. This is not a major version
change. I have also personally tested this long ago. So I'm failing to
see what you guys are talking about when you say intrusive or things
not working,
Switching to wxwidgets2.8 is quite intrusive.
Loic, you co-maintain vlc in Debian, what do you think about this?

I think it makes sense to switch to wxwidgets2.8, but I agree it's
intrusive.
But this is probably moot as vlc 0.9 will release shortly with a qt4
frontend and the goal is to merge that for intrepid.

I'm curious of exactly how updating a library is intrusive ? Also now
that it is seen that the updated lib does not cause any potential
issues, this is a no brainer to replace one line in the deb control
file.

I was looking at the file:
vlc_0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu2.diff
And in the file debian/control, under Build-Depends: . You need to
change libwxgtk2.6-dev to be libwxgtk2.8-dev
FYI.. I noticed this in the change log. There have been updates to vlc since
this, but be aware

Thanks for your bug report Jerone. You contacted me by email, but after further
investigation, I can not confirm this issue with
version 0.8.6.release.d-0ubuntu6 in Hardy. If I select always on top from the
context (right click) on the title bar, the results are expected. The window
stays on
I am refering to option in vlc. On the top bar Video-Always-on-Top ..
you need to be playing a video for this option to take affect. Currently
it will not keep the vlc window on top.
Now I just noticed that Gnome now has always-on-top for apps again
(whoot!)..but this still does not full solve
Yes so to add on to my last comment and pervent confusion.
1) Ensure that in the left hand corner (where the app icon is). That allways
on top is not checked. This is a feature of metacity (which is the windows
manager for Gnome).
2) Now you open a video in vlc
3) Now go to the top bar in vlc,
Thanks for the clarification. Confirmed.
