+1.8 How do I uninstall / reinstall VLC ?
+--------------------------------------
+Why would you want to ?  ;)

+If you're using a source distribution of VLC, for example a tarball or
+the CVS, then you have probably used "make install" to install the
+compiled VLC.  To remove it just "make uninstall".  If you want to
+install a newer version than the currently installed one, you should
+first uninstall the first one.  If you deleted the original source tree,
+a "make uninstall" in the newer tree should still work.
+
+For binary packages, remove old packages first and install the new ones
+(normally this should be handled automagically by your sytem).
