Dear Experts,
I am trying to build vlc 0.9.2 on Linux (coLinux). While I try to build extras/contrib, I get the following error in "goom"
Could you folks please help me to resolve this build error?. Do you I need to get latest "goom" or configure it differently?, if so, how do I solve it?

deactivate goom.

Hi j-b,

Thanks for the reply. I am newbie to this whole build.
Could you tell me how do I disable goom for extras/contrib build?. Do I use ./configure --disable goom or something like that before I do the make in extras/contrib?

Thanks for your help

What distribution are you on?

I am on Debian eth linux distribution on coLinux.
Thanks for your help.

Hello j-b,
I edited distro.mak to extras/contrib to remove .goom2k4.
Did make again, it seems "make" is skipping goom and rest of the build is on.
Is this the correct thing to do to disable goom?

Yes.
