Public bug reported:

Not sure if this is the correct place to report this.

A simple typo in libvlc.h of the vlc-0.8.6-release source package
(obtained via "apt-get source vlc") prevents vlc from building. A "G"
was in place of what should have been an "O" for the constant
"FORCE_DOLBY_TEXT" (see patch below)

Here's a quick diff that seemed to fix the problem for me:
