Hello module in-tree compile error

[francescoBLT]

Hi
after compiling vlc under Linux Ubuntu 17.04 I've followed the hello example in the wiki.
It's not clear to me how to modify the modules.am file. If I add the lines in the wiki:

libhello_plugin_la_SOURCES = hello.c
libhello_plugin_la_CFLAGS = $(AM_CFLAGS)
libhello_plugin_la_LIBADD = $(AM_LIBADD)
libhello_plugin_la_DEPENDENCIES =
# Always compile the hello module:
libvlc_LTLIBRARIES += libhello_plugin.la

but when I bootstrap I receive the error:
modules/control/Modules.am:70: error: libvlc_LTLIBRARIES must be set with '=' before using '+='

and if I made a search for the text libvlc_LTLIBRARIES in all the directory vlc-2.6.6 no text libvlc_LTLIBRARIES is found.
May be there is an error in the wiki ? I've attempt to correct with control_LTLIBRARIES bootstrapping and configure
are ok but issuing make result is :

Making all in bin
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/alfredo/vlc-2.2.6/bin'
GEN ../modules/plugins.dat
/bin/bash: line 4: 12634 Segmentation fault (core dumped) ./vlc-cache-gen ../modules
Makefile:1527: recipe for target '../modules/plugins.dat' failed
make[2]: *** [../modules/plugins.dat] Error 139
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/alfredo/vlc-2.2.6/bin'
Makefile:2267: recipe for target 'all-recursive' failed

What's I'm doing wrong ?
regards

Probably nothing wrong on your end. This looks like a known bug in Ubuntu 17.04.
