Description Mario Sanchez Prada 2013-02-16 00:09:47 UTC

Description of problem:
=======================
There is no libgstgdkpixbuf.so module included in the gstreamer1-plugins-good package for Fedora 18 (version 1.0.5-1), which causes any app trying to use the gdkpixbufsink decoder to fail with the following error:

  'Could not construct pipeline: no element "gdkpixbufsink"'

However, it seems that the documentation HTML files are included indeed!

$ rpm -ql gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.0.5-1.fc18.x86_64 | grep pixbuf
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-1.0/gst-plugins-good-plugins-gdkpixbufoverlay.html
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-1.0/gst-plugins-good-plugins-gdkpixbufsink.html
/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gst-plugins-good-plugins-1.0/gst-plugins-good-plugins-plugin-gdkpixbuf.html

This module is available in gstreamer1-plugins-good since 1.0.2, so it looks to me like a packaging bug.

Note: this seems to be fixed in Fedora 19, in package version 1.0.5-3.fc19, at least according to the file list here: 
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/6/idpl/20138854/dir/rawhide/com/gstreamer1-plugins-good-1.0.5-3.fc19.x86_64.rpm


Version-Release number of selected component:
=============================================
1.0.5-1.fc18.x86_64


How reproducible:
=================

Just try to run any application using a Gstreamer pipeline including the gdkpixbufsink decoder in a Fedora 18 system with that version of the package and you should be able to spot the issue.

I personally have detected it while reviewing a patch for frogr in GNOME's bugzilla (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693230#c19)

Indeed! I just enabled the updates-testing repository to check that 1.0.5-3 version out and it fixes the issue for me.

Thanks!
