Source: gstreamer1.0
Version: 1.24.11-1
Severity: wishlist
GStreamer has libunwind integration, which seems to be limited to
using it to print better backtraces when showing debug information.
While nice to have, this doesn't seem like a critically important feature.
Meanwhile, libunwind has several unaddressed RC bugs, including a
build failure on i386 that causes it to be out-of-sync between amd64
and i386. This makes it difficult for users of unstable to have working
Wine for both amd64 and i386 processes, because libwine depends on
libgstreamer1.0-0 and therefore indirectly libunwind8, and apt/dpkg
requires the version number of libunwind8 to be the same for amd64
and i386.
Would it be possible to disable the libunwind integration in GStreamer,
either on i386 or on all architectures?
If it was disabled on all architectures, it would have the side benefit
of resolving #1030380.
Thanks,
