* Merge from Debian unstable, remaining Ubuntu changes:
  - debian/control: Don't build-depend on libtwolame-dev, a newer
    version of libcaca-dev, or linux-kernel-headers (Ubuntu Edgy
    does not have them),
  - debian/patches/001_1008snap.{fixes,translations}.diff: Remove,
    this is a new upstream version, fixes FTBFS on translations,
  - debian/rules: Use Ubuntu-specific configure options (firefox).
* New upstream snapshot fixes wxvlc not stopping when 'close
  button' is clicked (Closes Ubuntu: #54630).
* New upstream snapshot has more robust x264 support
  (Closes: Ubuntu #62217).
* Segfault when using HTTP interface was fixed in
  0.8.6-svn20060918.debian-1ubuntu4 (Closes Ubuntu: #63833).
* New upstream snapshot should resolve issues with skins2/wxw
  interfaces (Closes: Ubuntu #64975).

* Backport fixes from Debian's 10/08 snapshot, fixing heap smashing
  with HTTP interface (Closes Ubuntu: #63833),
* Realign packaging with Debian's 10/08 snapshot, updating rules
  and *.install,
* Correct previous changelog entry that erroneously marked Ubuntu
  #62856 as resolved.

Backport fixes from Debian's 0925 snapshot, fixing failure to
read rtsp streams from Freebox (Closes Ubuntu: #62856, #63135).

debian/rules: Remove --enable-dmo --enable-loader from i386
$(vlc_confflags). With the dh_install -si --fail-missing
semantics, arch-specific exceptions aren't possible. Fixes
FTBFS on i386.

"'Time to race', she said, 'Race the downhill'."

* Add debian/patches/24_prefs_stacking_fix, fixing stacking in
  Preferences dialog. Taken from upstream svn changeset 13795, thanks
  to Bruce Cowan (Closes: Malone #31891).
* Demote ttf-freefont, ttf-thryomanes to Suggests as the former
  provides bad metrics for Thai. See Debian #362071 for additional
  information.
* Don't use gcc-snapshot as the compiler. See Debian #361729 for more
  information.
* Make vlc.desktop HIG-compliant.
* Rebuild against new libebml-dev and libmatroska-dev, fixing crashes
  with Matroska files (Closes: Malone #29644).
* Use our own faad2 and x264, fixing garbled graphics (Closes: Malone
  #28539). Please see Debian #365389 if the inclusion of these
  libraries stirs your ire.

  - Enable support for zeroconf/bonjour, musepack decoding, and VCD
