Package: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg Version: 0.10.10-1 Severity: grave /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so appears to be linked to libva-0.31.0.6.so.1, which is not available at all in lenny.
----------8<---------- $ apt-cache policy gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg: Installed: 0.10.10-1 Candidate: 0.10.10-1 Version table: *** 0.10.10-1 0 900 http://ftp.us.debian.org squeeze/main Packages 800 http://ftp.us.debian.org sid/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ ldd /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so | grep 'not found' libva-0.31.0.6.so.1 => not found ----------8<---------- This renders the plugin useless, causing every gstreamer-based media player I have to fail (totem mainly). See this output, for example: ----------8<---------- $ gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=test.avi ! decodebin ! autovideosink Setting pipeline to PAUSED ... Pipeline is PREROLLING ... (gst-launch-0.10:8507): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin '/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so': libva-0.31.0.6.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ERROR: from element /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0/GstAviDemux:avidemux0: Internal data stream error. Additional debug info: gstavidemux.c(5111): gst_avi_demux_loop (): /GstPipeline:pipeline0/GstDecodeBin:decodebin0/GstAviDemux:avidemux0: streaming stopped, reason not-linked ERROR: pipeline doesn't want to preroll. Setting pipeline to NULL ... Freeing pipeline ... ----------8<---------- It appears that decodebin gives up entirely decoding the video stream and decodes the audio only; replacing autovideosink with autoaudiosink plays the audio stream without error, and linking decodebin to an autoaudiosink and a fakesink results in a not-linked error. -- Chris Howie http://www.chrishowie.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Crazycomputers If you correspond with me on a regular basis, please read this document: http://www.chrishowie.com/email-preferences/ PGP fingerprint: 2B7A B280 8B12 21CC 260A DF65 6FCE 505A CF83 38F5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IMPORTANT INFORMATION/DISCLAIMER This document should be read only by those persons to whom it is addressed.
