Does your package provide GStreamer plugins?

[Bastien Nocera]

Hey,

If your package provides GStreamer plugins, please rebuild it in rawhide
with the latest gstreamer-devel and RPM builds.

If you are a third-party repository maintainer, this is even more
important.

We are trying to use a PackageKit-based solution to installing missing
GStreamer plugins. The new GStreamer and RPM packages will add strings
like this to your RPM's provides:
gstreamer0.10(urisource-ssh)()(64bit)
gstreamer0.10(decoder-application/ogg)()(64bit)

This will be used by a yet-to-be-written application that will use
PackageKit to provide missing plugins installation. That means that,
with the right set of third-party repositories, most videos and audio
files will have seamless auto-installation, without any hard-coding of
which package provides which resource.

For more information see:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/GStreamer_dependencies_in_RPM

I've already rebuilt:
gstreamer-plugins-base
gstreamer-plugins-good
gstreamer-plugins-flumpegdemux

I will rebuild bluez as well. Could somebody please rebuild
gstreamer-plugins-farsight as well?

Cheers

I will take care of the third-party packages I'm maintaining, I need to update 
them to the latest upstream anyways.

I tried rebuilding schroedinger but I didn't see any new provides show
up.  Is there something I'm doing wrong?  Here's a scratch build I
just did:

$ echo /usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstschro.so | ./gstreamer.prov 
gstreamer0.10(encoder-video/x-dirac)()(64bit)
gstreamer0.10(decoder-video/x-dirac)()(64bit)
gstreamer0.10(decoder-video/x-dirac)()(64bit)

I don't get it, the RPM and gstreamer-devel versions are new enough for
the provides to work. Panu, could it be RPM not calling the script for
sub packages?

Cheers

Nope, it gets called for all shared libraries. Here's the problem:

[pmatilai@turre ~]$ gst-inspect --print-plugin-auto-install-info --rpm 
/home/pmatilai/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/schroedinger-1.0.5-2.fc9.x86_64/usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstschro.so

(gst-inspect-0.10:6091): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin 
'/home/pmatilai/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/schroedinger-1.0.5-2.fc9.x86_64/usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstschro.so': 
libschroedinger-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory
Could not load plugin file: Opening module failed: 
libschroedinger-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory

The schroedinger plugin library depends on a library that's only available 
in the buildroot. The above with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to buildroot 
%{_libdir} succeeds but...

But what? Other than the hand-wavy "It's ugly!", what's wrong with that
approach?

An updated gstreamer package is building, let me know whether that fixes
the problem for you:

Looks like it worked:

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=825991

Is this something we should request beta-freeze tag overrides for?

Yeah, I'll rebuild it.  Thanks for the heads up.

Later,
