    Install latest VLC player - packages problem

    Hello,
    I'm new to Kubuntu. I'd like to install the latest vlc player (I need v4l2 support). I added
    Code:
    deb [url]http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/gutsy-i386/arch[/url] ./
    to sources.list, then did
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install vlc
    and i got these errors:
    Code:
    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    
    Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
    the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
    that package should be filed.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:
    
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:
     vlc: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1) but 2.6.1-1ubuntu10 is to be installed
        Depends: libcaca0 (>= 0.99.beta13b-1) but 0.99.beta11.debian-3 is to be installed
        Depends: libcairo2 (>= 1.5.8) but 1.4.10-1ubuntu4.4 is to be installed
        Depends: libcdio7 but it is not installable
        Depends: libcucul0 (>= 0.99.beta13b-1) but 0.99.beta11.debian-3 is to be installed
        Depends: libfribidi0 (>= 0.10.9) but 0.10.7-4build1 is to be installed
        Depends: libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.15.6) but 2.14.1-1ubuntu1 is to be installed
        Depends: libiso9660-5 but it is not installable
        Depends: libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.19.4) but 1.18.3-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt4-core (>= 4.3.4) but 4.3.2-0ubuntu3.2 is to be installed
        Depends: libqt4-gui (>= 4.3.4) but 4.3.2-0ubuntu3.2 is to be installed
        Depends: libvlc1 (>= 0.9.0-svn20080302-0) but it is not going to be installed
        Depends: libwxbase2.6-0 (>= 2.6.3.2.2) but 2.6.3.2.1.5ubuntu12 is to be installed
        Depends: libwxgtk2.6-0 (>= 2.6.3.2.2) but 2.6.3.2.1.5ubuntu12 is to be installed
        Depends: vlc-nox (= 0.9.0-svn20080302-0-0) but it is not going to be installed
    E: Broken packages
    That looks like vlc needs newer libraries than Ubuntu can offer. What can I do about that? Or is it a bug in vlc nightly?

    Thanx for any suggestions.
