Thanks for the reply.  I asked  recent version from fedora forums and one
nice guy (seve) provided a 0.9.4 fc9 rpm.  When I tried to install that to
fc8 I got a bunch of dependency errors.  After that Leigh compiled seve's
sources against fc8 and provided those to me and I got vlc installed.  Based
on this I assume fc9 vlc rpm's might not install to fc8?
