damn.
this progs have hard times getting this damn /usr/lib64

Please n00biest remain calm.
Maybe a little searching could help, i found following in Bugzilla:
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20954

Hope it helps you, at least, in some direction.

I had the same problem and I ran strace /usr/lib64/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins in Konsole as root and it fixed it.

@ Isa & Plis
ok. ok.
so i will dl the 160 MOs of valgrind, type in /usr/lib64/vlc/vlc-cache-gen -f /usr/lib64/vlc/plugins and see what happens.
wish me luck.

ok: the bugzilla thingy was so useless i was about to pull the trigger, but then decided to try strace instead: i have now a full /usr/lib64/, full as an egg. not bad.
i have now a nice aka47 to sell for those in need.
but remember: try strace before, lads!

:^)

I ran this too and it's all fixed:
I have never run strace or did not know what it does.
