Yes, that module is still present in 2.2 (2.2.1 and future 2.2.X versions).

I'm testing the waters here, as I couldn't build gnome-vfs, and since
that module
is being removed from upstream (again, in future 3.0 version but not
2.2.X), I
didn't bother to add a PACKAGECONFIG knob for it.

With this patch the gnome-vfs module will still if gnome-vfs is present,
although it will not load at runtime if gnome-vfs is not installed (without
preventing the rest of VLC to work properly).

It would be in the same position than the libarchive, dvdnav, samba,
ssh2 modules, etc
which coincidentally implement the capabilities that the deprecated (in
gnome) gnome-vfs
provides :)

So this simple patch fixes my build failure and at the same time reduces
future work for when
VLC 3.0 will be released.


What do you think?


Thanks for the feedback
