Hi all,
  I've added automatic installation of gstreamer to 3rd party installation 
scripts, using only system tools (yum/apt-get/port, no compilation from 
sources). This way we are getting available precompiled versions of gstreamer 
and it's plugins from public repositories, which are different for different 
platforms:

                        Ubuntu 10.04    Ubuntu 12.04    CentOS 5.x      CentOS 
6.x      Mac OS X 10.7
gstreamer               (as below)      (as below)      0.10.20         0.10.29 
        0.10.36
gstreamer-tools         0.10.28         0.10.36         0.10.20         0.10.29 
        (as above)
gst-plugins-base        0.10.28         0.10.36         0.10.20         0.10.29 
        0.10.36
gst-plugins-good        0.10.21         0.10.31         0.10.9          0.10.23 
        0.10.31
gst-plugins-bad         0.10.18         0.10.22         0.10.8          0.10.19 
        0.10.23
gst-plugins-ugly        0.10.14         0.10.18         0.10.11         0.10.16 
        0.10.19
gst-ffmpeg              0.10.10         0.10.13         0.10.6          0.10.11 
        0.10.13

It seems that gstreamer available for CentOS 5.x is the worst of all - it 
doesn't even have x264enc, so it might be unusable.
Please bear in mind the minimum available versions and functionality on all 
other platforms when using gstreamer in Matterhorn to remain platform 
independent.

The other possibility - compilation from the same sources on all supported 
platforms requires quite an effort (because of dependencies and additional 
libraries) and it also complicates system management for administrators.
