Bug 1327874

Well, I think I forgot to Obsolete gstreamer1-vaapi-devel package. But I'm unsure, what to do. Because 1.8.0 does not provide any includes anymore.

Make gstreamer1-vaapi-devel package obsolete

This will fix updating from a previous version. If someone has gstreamer1-vaapi-devel package installed, he will be updated to gstreamer1-vaapi-devel-docs package.

Because the latest version of gstreamer1-vaapi available in Fedora, is 0.6.1-2, I chose 0.6.1-3 as $obsEVR as suggested here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Renaming.2FReplacing_Existing_Packages

Update to 1.8.0

Fixed bogus date in %changelog

Do not forget what you need first to apply attachment 1148867 [details], and only then attachment 1148066 [details].

Is maintainer of this package is even exist? I already have an update to 1.8.1, but this one is still not merged.

I've been busy recently with family stuff, and not had time on Sundays to work on this.

If you're already a packager, I welcome co-maintainers precisely because I do become busy from time to time - just head to https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/gstreamer1-vaapi/ and request ACLs.

No, I do not have packager status or commit rights on packages. And I do not know how to get it.

I'm still getting a suitable developer setup going so that I can take your patches; I'm not a sponsor, so can't sponsor you into the packager group, but if you can find someone who'll sponsor you in, I'm happy to grant ACLs for gstreamer1-vaapi.

I had read the article, and decided, what I'm not quite ready for this responsibility right now. I'm feeling what life things right now is not enough stable. But I'll try to do it later.

I can update this.

Do it. Updating to 1.8.1 also works, just set Version-Release to '1.8.1-1' after applying my patch.

Or just do not apply my patch, do it yourself. :)

I just wanted to notice about problem that appears with new gstreamer1-vaapi.
If you have libva-intel-driver installed and you update the gstreamer1-vaapi, then you'll encounter https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71759 , which can be worked around with LIBGL_DRI3_DISABLE=1 .

(Btw, I've tested this with self-compiled gstreamer1-vaapi-1.8.1 rpm)

Yep. Forgot about that.

Wim Taymans commited my change and updated it for F24 at 2016-04-25.
