Source (git repo) is available here: http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc-ports/ios.git;a=summary

It's missing external dependencies which seems to be the goal of the included buildAspenProject.sh, but I can't get it to run 100%. I'll report back here when I can successfully build it.

EDIT: The git repo is missing the necessary patches to vendored code. i.e.:

  git am ../../patches/*.patch

There is also http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc-ports/ios2.git;a=summary that seems to be ahead of ios.git by a few commits. Do you know what's the point of having two repos?

Those are now symlinks :)

Hi. I don't a README in vlc-ios repo, I'm assuming it requires the main vlc repo to be built. Have you got a guide for building it on OS X? I can't get it past the configure stage due to some missing deps.

No, just run the buildAspenProject scripts as documented here: https://wiki.videolan.org/iOSCompile

Thanks!
