<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I have used kate for editing xml documents for some years on
ubuntu. It's excellent. I'm on ubuntu 17.10, kate
4:17.04.3-0ubuntu1.</p>
<p>I recently installed the latest development version of vlc,
version 4.0. It installs libvlccore9 (after getting itself into
something of a muddle).</p>
<p>Installing this removed kate. After a fair bit of work I managed
to install <u>all</u> of kate's dependencies so that only kate
and one other library need to be installed. This extra library is
libvlccore8. However, I can't install libvlccore8 when
libvlccore9 is installed.</p>
<p>Clearly I could downgrade my vlc and restore kate, but in time
will need to move forwards again with vlc. <br>
</p>
<p> So the question is why does kate require a vlc library at all?
It seems rather strange.<br>
</p>
<p>Hoping you can give me some advice or clue how to overcome this,
even if it is just adding some links to make it look like
libvlccore8 is installed.</p>
<p>Regards</p>
