Description Michael Catanzaro 2019-09-06 15:21:41 UTC
Hi,

The gstreamer1-vaapi package needs this patch:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer-vaapi/merge_requests/72.patch

or it will break AMD graphics users.

Details:

Comment 1 Simon Farnsworth 2019-09-09 12:00:04 UTC
To confirm, the underlying issue is https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gstreamer-vaapi/issues/137 and when that is fixed I'll be able to drop this patch? Or has the patch gone upstream already, and this is just requesting that we backport it for the benefit of everyone waiting for a fixed gstreamer-vaapi to be released?

Comment 2 Michael Catanzaro 2019-09-09 12:53:18 UTC
The patch went upstream shortly after I reported this bug, so yes you should be able to drop it after the next gstreamer-vaapi release (probably 1.16.1).

Comment 5 Simon Farnsworth 2019-10-12 19:27:27 UTC
This bug was reported against 1.16.1, which already had the requested patch applied.

Comment 6 Michael Catanzaro 2019-10-13 16:33:48 UTC
Well this bug reports predates 1.16.1, but yes this should be closed now.

Comment 7 Michael Catanzaro 2019-10-16 01:42:10 UTC
Er hey Simon, the package was left in a bad state (patch committed to git but not applied) and should be cleaned up: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2019-4d639f8e15#comment-1085683

Comment 8 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2019-10-16 06:35:35 UTC
I confirm that applying the patch fail as the patch is already applied.
Cleaned up the git module and withdrawn the package update.
(there is no functional change, so no need to issue a new updates for f31).
