Remove option for flac as vlc's configure script forces it to be enabled
all the time (contrary to the docs!).
Add some buildlink dependencies.

(wxwidgets on by default with skins2 disable for compatibility). N.B. If
skins2 is enabled and wxwidgets disabled, vlc will work fine, but there will
be no dialog provider so you won't be able to alter the playlist.
Add libdvdpsi and enable support for it - this is required for mpeg-ts
streams (i.e. default network streams).
Bump PKGREVISION
PLIST.${MACHINE_ARCH:C/i[3-6]86/i386/g}
PLIST.${OPSYS}-${MACHINE_ARCH:C/i[3-6]86/i386/g}

VideoLAN is a project of French students from the Ecole
Centrale Paris and developers from all over the world. Its main
goals is MPEG streaming on a network, but it also features a
standalone multimedia player. The VideoLAN Server can stream
video read from a hard disk, a DVD player, a satellite card or
an MPEG 2 compression card, and unicast or multicast it on a
network. The VideoLAN Client can read the stream from the
network and display it. It can also be used to display video
read locally on the computer : DVDs, VCDs, MPEG and DivX files
and from a satellite card. It is multi-plaform : Linux,
Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, BSD, Solaris, QNX, iPaq... The
VideoLAN Client and Server now have a full IPv6 support.
