It was great to port VLC to the last version and it runs really stable. Yesterday I tried to update my tree, but updating from 2.0.1 to VLC-2.0.1_1, the build failed. I cleaned then all installed ports and start the installation again, but was also not successful.

Do you know any workaround? Take a look at #34741, it seems to me this is a likewise problem.[[BR]] In my case it was an error due to the fact that my XCode was out of date.[[BR]] On advice of Jeremy I upgraded my XCode to the latest available version for OSX 10.6 and was able to install VLC.[[BR]] Note: Upgrading the current port of VLC did not work for me, I had to disable the installed version and perform an install of the latest one.[[BR]] I hope this will help you to get it working.
