Related to: How to update VLC to the latest version?

Except that there are no builds for Natty in this VLC ppa:

ppa:videolan/stable-daily

Index of /videolan/stable-daily/ubuntu/dists:

So how do I update VLC (currently 2.0) on Ubuntu 11.04, Natty Narwhal?

There is a daily build PPA from the VLC team, add it following these steps

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:videolan/master-daily

Update and upgrade / install VLC

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install vlc

Installing from source worked for me - here's the log: http://eumenidae.blogspot.com/2012/02/upgrading-to-vlc-20-on-ubuntu-1104-with.html

Try using this PPA, I don't know if they have packages for 11.04, but they have for either 11.10 and 10.04, so it's worth trying.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:n-muench/vlc
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install vlc

This PPA is not a testing repo, so lastest VLC 2.0 stable version is released here. If you still can't get it the easy way, you can always compile from source.

Good luck! ;)
