Description Alex Lancaster 2006-08-31 12:27:26 UTC
Description of problem:

According to bug #192802 the gstreamer support was fixed, but in the most recent
version of amarok, it again does not appear as an engine that can be chosen


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
amarok-1.4.2-1.fc5


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install amarok
2. go to "Engine" options

  
Actual results:
You only see the Helix engine

Expected results:
Helix and gstreamer should appear

Additional info:

Looking at the list of files in the package, it appears that it is missing
libamarok_gstreamerengine_plugin.so analogous to the
libamarok_helixengine_plugin.so:

$ rpm -ql amarok

gstreamer is still disabled by Amarok upstream.

> gstreamer is still disabled by Amarok upstream.

Then what does this changelog refer to?  It seems to suggest that it was fixing
it (i.e. making it work):

* Wed Jul 19 2006 Aurelien Bompard <abompard> 1.4.1-3
- fix the gstreamer engine (wrong X-KDE-Amarok-framework-version)






Comment 3 Aurelien Bompard 2006-08-31 16:28:17 UTC
The gstreamer engine was added back on the x86_64 architecture only because
there was no other engine on this arch. I made a mistake adding it back, and
fixed it in the -3 release.

The presence of the gstreamer engine is Amarok in general is *not* fixable,
because it is *not* a bug, it's a QA decision.
