The package installs and is not functional. Why it's not functional is the package is missing .config/vlc/vlcrc so vlc has no clue how to do anything on a linux system.
Assuming you're talking in your home dir, the program has to do this itself at runtime. Pacman cannot do this for you.
For whatever reason I couldn't get vlc-nox to install on this system error exit 4 manual intervention is needed. Was this manual intervention documented on arch-announce?
If you didn't confuse your AUR helper for pacman, you'd realize that that error wasn't from pacman and has nothing to do with the repos or arch-announce.
