I was wondering why there was a wildmidi-related patch in the srpm.
Well, because I intended to enable wildmidi support as soon as wildmidi got
approved, but I forgot :|
Sorry if I hadn't filed a bug report. It's hard to tell what
was
intended and what isn't. Would it interest you to know that on my
machine, I also have the mpeg2enc and nassink plugins enabled?
mpeg2enc should already be enabled I indeed missed nas thats enabled now too
Hans, how about this for an idea: re-write the
gstreamer-plugins-bad.spec so that it puts the various plugins in
separate packages and make gstreamer-plugins-bad a virtual package that
Requires all of the plugins to pull them in?
I think this is a bad idea, we really want the user to have todo less to get a
complete set of codecs, not more.
It might be an idea to put some of the less often used sinks (jack, nas, ?) in
a -extras package though, to avoid pulling in deps most people don't have a use
for.
Regards,
Hans
