I downloaded the SRPMS and recompiled them on my FC6-ish laptop.  The
re-compiles went well and Elisa seems to be working well.  One thing
that I'm concerned about is the dependence on gstreamer-plugins-bad and
gstreamer-plugins-ugly.  After erasing gstreamer-plugins-bad elisa is
still working, at least for the few files I tried.   The same is
probably true for the ugly plugins.  Having a dependence on either of
those is going to keep Elisa out of the "official" Fedora repos.
