How to install VLC 2.1 on Linux Mint 17?
0
I've tried this after running the following commands on my Linux Mint 17 box:
sudo apt-get remove --purge vlc*
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/stable-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-notify vlc-plugin-pulse
VLC version "2.0.6 Twoflower" installs instead of 2.1.x.
apt-cache policy vlc produces the following output:
vlc:
Installed: 1:2.0.6-dmo3
Candidate: 1:2.0.6-dmo3
Version table:
*** 1:2.0.6-dmo3 0
500 http://www.deb-multimedia.org/ wheezy/main i386 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Where am I going wrong?

I renamed /etc/apt to /etc/apt-old and copied /etc/apt from a live CD. This fixed the issue.
