#69539 new enhancement

VLC: implement building from source again, build with X11 for older OS (?) — at Initial Version

Description

  1. Desired enhancement: restore building VLC3 from source, which was removed in https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/commit/ddd6f4336c9cb206f76bc438e355a929425676b0
  1. It seems that Qt can be disabled altogether for VLC, and then there is nothing to prevent it from building in principle even on Tiger. Even with no GUI it should be perfectly usable, as long as the output is sent to X window.

If the point 1 is too complicated to implement, maybe we can make vlc-cli port?
