 Do you have a diff for the PLIST?
 If you can, including the pkgsrc magic, but if not, it'd still help someone looking at it who doesn't have PPC available.

 The subject of this existing PR is "PLIST of multimedia/vlc is x86-centric"
 It seems the package is also NetBSD-centric, according to PKG_DEVELOPER=yes

 The PLIST variables cdda and vcd are already defined in the makefile.

 Looks reasonable to me.

 It seems... odd that two PLIST vars are defined in the makefile and
 not currently used in the PLIST. Maybe someone messed it up when
 updating?

 When seeing this PR it made me remember of other vlc PLIST related
 issues that I filed as pkg/45209 (just as reference, as the issues were
 not with the same files).

 Log Message:
 PR#45527 multimedia/vlc: Fix DragonFly breakage (PLIST)

 DragonFly builds with two plugins that NetBSD suppresses, but these
 plugins were not on PLIST although the definition of suitable PLIST
 variables suggest this was intended originally.  The plugins have
 been conditionally added to the PLIST to properly support DragonFly.

 No, the PLIST variable were correctly implemented on 2 Oct 2008, and were present in the PLIST until Jan 24, 2011, which is when DragonFly was broken and when VLC was updated from WIP to version 1.1.6.  Clearly the WIP version was not a 1:1 replacement:

 https://github.com/jsonn/pkgsrc/commit/c86fc94adab75436b622241dc36314a0cfec04fe

 Maybe some of these other PLIST issues were introduced at that time as well?

 Taking at look at gnats, PR 44655 is also caused by the import of 
 version 1.1.6 from WIP.

 Maybe it's time that somebody audit this package, taking all these open 
 PRs into account?
 It seems like a lot of problems were introduced  with that version.

State-Changed-Why:
I believe this is fixed, while VLC's plist is a constant challenge it now
at least handles ARM and PowerPC correctly.
