Hi,
I am trying to install vlc0.8.6c from source mainly because I want h264 support.
I compiled vlc without problems. However it refuses to run with the following error

[00000266] main dialogs provider error: no dialogs provider module matched "any"
[00000263] skins2 interface error: no suitable dialogs provider found (hint: compile the wxWidgets plugin, and make sure it is loaded properly)
Couldn't gzopen /home/kiran/.vlc/skins2/default.vlt
[00000263] main interface error: no suitable access module for `/home/kiran/.vlc/skins2/default.vlt'

[00000263] skins2 interface: skin: VLC 0.8.5 Default Skin author: aLtgLasS
vlc: symbol lookup error: vlc: undefined symbol: img_convert


Here are the things I tried so far:
wxwidgets:
./configure --with-gtk --with-x --enable-unicode --disable-shared --enable-gui --enable-plugins --enable-universal --with-sdl --enable-compat22
ffmpeg:(latest SVN checkout-2007-10-1)
./configure --enable-x11grab --enable-liba52 --enable-liba52bin --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-shared --enable-gpl --enable-pp
vlc:
./configure

I tried with wxWidgets versions 2.8.6,2.6.4,2.6.3 - none of them helped.
When I do vlc -vv -l wx - I don't see any wxwidget plugin installed.
Although I compile wxwidgets with plugins enabled it never generates the plugin library file.

Would greatly appreciate if anyone has answers.
Thanks,
Kiran

run vlc -vvv --list --no-plugins-cache and look for any error

make sure you did install libwxgtk2.6-dev
