Changes for v1.0.5 - v1.1.0 RC

• Important changes for users:
• On Linux, known bugs in the ALSA library might prevent audio output. Update to alsa-lib 1.0.24 or later, or use the PulseAudio output instead.
• Important changes for packagers:
• The module cache has moved to ${libdir}/vlc/. The module cache can now be generated at install time except if you use staged installation. In the later case, you can generate the module cache in your post-inst script by invoking 'vlc-cache-gen'. If the module cache is not present and vlc can't write in ${libdir}/vlc/, it will result it vlc taking a long time to launch each time.
• Most X11-related plugins now use XCB instead of Xlib. VLC now uses
• - xproto,
• - xcb, xcb-shm, xcb-xv, xcb-randr (from libxcb),
• - xcb-keysyms (from xcb-utils),
• - x11-xcb (from libx11) - only for GLX support.
• On X11 platforms, a _working_ version of xdg-screensaver is typically required to inhibit the screensaver during video playback.
