That's not a configuration flag that you can add, it only supports the flags that are built into the configure script; "./configure -h" to see those. Just remove all your stuff and install the Stretch VLC, then if you want to launch VLC with that parameter, just make a script that sets that and then runs VLC, name it something like vlc-qt, put it in /usr/local/bin, and run that instead to start vlc. You can also edit the menu entry to use "vlc-qt" instead if you want.
Edit: Dai-trying's environment fix is superior, do that instead.
So it is a classic XY problem...for future reference, if you had just come out and told us what you were trying to do from the first post, we wouldn't have had to go down all these false paths--just tell you how to set an environment variable.
For the skins issue, you have to install the vlc-plugin-skins2 package, install some skins manually, and then enable the skins user interface in VLC's Preferences.
