Segfault on Ubuntu 13.04 (VLC 2.0.6)
Hello
I recently upgraded to 13.04 from 12.10 and VLC no longer works. I get a segfault upon launching it.
Launching it with -vvv from the command lines gives:
user@local:[~]$ vlc -vvv

I then used GDB to get a backtrace:

I have tried reinstalling VLC with apt-get install --reinstall
too.
