I wanted to install locally VLC on a 6.9 CentOS desktop (at work) to watch this video. Since I don't have root access, I downloaded the 2.2.6 version in my home folder and ran configure
as said in INSTALL
Then, it failed because Lua wasn't found. So I downloaded the latest version following the method propose by the official website, with lua -v
working.
I've added the executable and the .h headers (as answered in this question) to my PATH in local bin
folder. Then ran configure
again. Still it cannot find lua
. Looking at the configure
script and the INSTALL
text, I wasn't able to find a solution to make VLC search for Lua in PATH.
So how do I configure my system to makes VLC working ?
