While this may be a local or ubuntu 9.10 issue -
All builds of 1.1 from the last couple of days semi fail on the install with this -

Making install in .
GEN stamp-cache
./vlc-cache-gen: error while loading shared libraries: libvlc.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
make[5]: *** [install-exec-hook] Error 127
make[4]: *** [install-exec-am] Error 2
make[3]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[2]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [install] Error 2

At that point everything is installed except for this and the shared, doc installs.

Running a sudo ldconfig and then re-running the sudo make install results in a complete install -

Making install in .
GEN stamp-cache
Making install in share
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 vlc.ico vlc16x16.png vlc16x16.xpm vlc32x32.png vlc32x32.xpm vlc32x32-christmas.xpm vlc48x48.png vlc48x48-christmas.png vlc128x128.png vlc128x128-christmas.png '/usr/local/share/vlc'
/bin/mkdir -p '/usr/local/share/applications'
ect. ect....

Is there anyway to not have to run the install twice? (if not a local issue
(like having an ldconfig run right before "Making install in .
GEN stamp-cache"

This should be fixed now.
