With this info, it might be worth investigating what else in BLFS relies
on GStreamer-0.10 and would it be finally time to nuke it for good.
A quick look at BLFS systemd revealed that Pidgin and Tumbler use it
optionally
Ok, another update:
Pidgin 3.0 development version has GStreamer-1.0 support already and
Fedora guys have backported the patch to 2.10.7 series:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/pidgin.git/tree/pidgin-2.10.11-gstreamer1.patch
I haven't tried it as I don't use pidgin.
I don't use pidgin either and I don't understand why an IM app would
need sound, but I'm OK with the patch.
As for tumbler, it appears it has been using gstreamer-1.0 for some
time and the dependency wasn't updated:
http://git.xfce.org/xfce/tumbler/tree/acinclude.m4#n161
Confirmed. I'll fix that in my next commit.
Still, xfce4 mixer remains. Maybe it should just be replaced with BLFS
pnmixer that Ken added.
The only mixer I use is alsamixer. I do not have a problem with
archiving xfce4-mixer. There is kmix too, but I suspect many who want
xfce do not want to build the kde libraries.
I'd still list gst-0.10 as an external optional dependency in
libreoffice, seamonkey, firefox, thunderbird, and parole.
That leaves qt4. Do you think it would be possible to drop
qtwebkit-2.3.4.tar.gz into the qt4 tree and build as a part of qt4?
Arg, the tarball is not in a directory! I'll try to investigate later
unless you beat me to it.
