Public bug reported: something is wrong with "vlc-cache-gen" because for some reason it doesn’t allow -f parameter any more even if it does say that.
while update it does print: Trigger for vlc-nox (3.0.0~~git20151203+r62588+34~ubuntu15.10.1) ... Usage: /usr/lib/vlc/vlc-cache-gen [-f] <path> Generate the LibVLC plugins cache for the specified plugins directory. WARNING: Regenerating VLC plugin cache failed. Please run 'vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib/vlc/plugins' manually. testing it: doesn’t work: /usr/lib/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib/vlc/plugins Usage: /usr/lib/vlc/vlc-cache-gen [-f] <path> Generate the LibVLC plugins cache for the specified plugins directory. does work: /usr/lib/vlc/vlc-cache-gen /usr/lib/vlc/plugins means either does vlc-cache-gen need to be fixed, or the vlc-nox.postinst should not use the -f parameter ** Affects: vlc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1522723 Title: vlc-cache-gen -f broken To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vlc/+bug/1522723/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
