To get the .1 version the library needs to be updated, but that would remove 
the .0 version which is required by vlc. Rather than remove vlc, the update 
is blocked. This also blocks the update of packages to versions that require 
the .1 version.

Some libraries to provide compatibility versions, but those are special 
circumstances.
