Package: gstreamer0.8
Severity: serious
gstreamer-0.8 embeds a full copy of the ffmpeg, which frequently
has vulnerabilities. For mplayer and gstreamer0.10 exceptions
were more or less justified, but for gstreamer0.8 this isn't
the case. It has only three rev-deps: teatime and and muine have
already easily been fixed in sid/experimental. goobox appears dead
upstream (According to http://www.gnomefiles.org/app.php?soft_id=531
the last release is from Nov 2005), has hardly any users in popcon
and we have plenty of media players in Debian. So unless it's fixed
to use gstreamer 0.10 it'll need to be removed from Etch along with
gstreamer 0.8.
Cheers,
Moritz
