They _are_ crappy. They have kept on breaking VLC, both upstream and
Debian's in my annoying and weird ways throughout the years. Fabian is
right.

No. d-m-o is ignoring the Debian policy and breaking official Debian. It
is crap. Over.

If you want to break your Debian system with d-m-o, it is well within your
rights. But don't expect upstream VLC or Debian VLC to support this (and by
the way, I _am_ upstream).
