Hi,
Building vlc-git on Slackware and I have found that the groupsock/inet.c section of the patch contrib/src/live555/live-getaddrinfo.patch fails with live.2011.11.08.tar.gz. I lack the skill to adjust the patch, is it possible somebody could have a look at this?
Thanks for your trouble,
Andrew

That patch works on the latest live555. You're not using the latest.

In that case I must be doing something foolish, for which my apologies. I am using this version of live555:

and patch rejects the following section:

It has been
suggested elsewhere that the problem line may be:
and certainly altering this line to:
as suggested by mc4man allows the patch to succeed.
