Hi there!

I am developing a little gtk application with using libvlc in linux. So I want to make it available in the AUR and want to ship the app without the vlc dependency and include libvlc in my code. How can I achieve this? I really appreciate any hint!

If you mean to depend on LibVLC without pulling VLC, that's really a question about AUR packages, not LibVLC.

If you mean to link LibVLC statically, there are no easy ways to do that; you'd have to implement your own ad-hoc build rules.
