So did you type all this on the command line?

Compile/Link/Run for Linux
$ export VLC_SRC=/tmp/vlc-0.8.6c
$ gcc -I ${VLC_SRC}/include/ -lvlc -L ${VLC_SRC}/src/.libs/ demo.c -o demo
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${VLC_SRC}/src/.libs/ 
$ ./demo --plugin-path ${VLC_SRC}

Have you actually downloaded and installed all the development files?

You can't just grab random bits of code and expect them to compile without working through the pre-requisites.

I'm using Geany 1.22 to compile the script in Ubuntu.
I have VLC installed, but are not sure if the development files. Can you help me with that?

I guess you run package manager, and search for "vlc-dev" to begin with.

Or you read some more of the tutorial you posted in your first message.
