Hi,
not a dev, too. But didn’t the package log help to figure out, what you need?
See Split the package based on plugins with external dependencies that is linked on the package page Arch Linux - vlc 3.0.21-26 (x86_64).
Mit
freundlichen Grüßen | Kind regards

Arch devs,
Updates tonight showed 20+ new vlc-plugins that are now separate from the main vlc package. The wiki is silent on which were included. There are a number of reddit threads from the last day about vlc no longer working due to the plugin issue, is there a list of what (which plugins) used to be included by vlc before the package was split?
I see there is a plugins-all which presumably installs every plugin, but I can't tell if that is wildly over-inclusive compared to what vlc used to provide by default.
Is there a way to figure out what used to be in the default Arch vlc package that now must be separately installed as a plugin to ensure the same functionality? The old package before the split used to work quite well without any muss or fuss.
