Hi!

I found a different way to compile the kit. Here is the way I got it to work:

-Download the head with git by entering following command in the terminal:
> git clone git://git.videolan.org/vlc.git

-Then go to vlc/projects/macosx/framework and open the vlckit project.
-Select as target "vlc-contrib-core-framework" and hit build. This downloads all dependencies and compiles required binaries as the vlc library. To compile the project, you need to have gcc 4.2, otherwise you will get a compiler error. The compiling takes a while and even may throw errors for some binaries which cannot be installed, but it seems not to be required.
-To check if everything works: Select the vlckit as target and hit build. Should compile without any error.

I don't know why the wiki doesn't explain this way; it is much easier than the way they describe it and it even works.

Enjoy your vlc-kit!
