I am trying to install new version of vlc
on Linux Mint 16. I have tried tutorials on how to do it and no success. When I am trying to install it with apt-get install vlc
I get the same version 2.0.8. How to solve this.
Example in command line:
Command:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/master-daily
Output:
