VLC Execution Problem: cannot find symbol 'vlc_entry__0_8_5'

Currently attempting to load a GUI within VLC using

./vlc -I skins2 --verbose 2 --extraintf logger

and getting the error

Code: Select all

[00000384] main module warning: cannot find symbol 'vlc_entry__0_8_5' in file "/usr/local/lib/vlc/gui/libskins2_plugin.so" or "/modules/gui/libskins2_plugin.so"

The only possible reason, I can think of.

Is during the build, I would get a error within the skin_parser.cpp, regarding the subparser being called and initiated.

The error concerned to inability to find the function Skinparser within the code and the function Skinparser subparser function.

When loading its plugins VLC check some things. One of the test is to find the open function for the module. the 0_8_5 is to insure the core and the plugin are compatible.

Here it seems that your module is either too old or too young or buggy
