If I can get Me TV inot a usable state quickly, I'll revisit creating a gstreamermm package. It does need doing, gstreamer 0.10 is effectively dead from what I can tell. -- Russel. = Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Roadm: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@lists.fedoraproject.org

I have though no idea how to create packages, especially for submission to the Fedora repository. Also I am going to fall into the "chicken and egg" pit myself: it is easier and quicker to create an application specific C++ wrapper around the C API than to contribute the package. I bet this is what is happening generally. -- Russel. = Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Roadm: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@lists.fedoraproject.org

C is not a good language for writing applications. Sadly there is chicken and egg situation here: only C API is available so people do not use C++ so the packaging doesn't happen. I guess the Debian GSteamermm packagers just "went for it" on the ground 1.0 is better than 0.10. -- Russel. = Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Roadm: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@lists.fedoraproject.org

I dount it's intentional, I suspect it's more than no one has needed gstreamermm 1.0 and hence not packaged it up.

GStreamermm
Hi, Debian Sid and Fedora Rawhide both have gstreamer-0.10 and gstreamer- 1.0 libraries, seemingly the full set. However Sid only has Gstreamermm 1.0 and Rawhide only has Gstreamermm 0.10. Is this intentional? It does make things somewhat awkward creating Gstreamer application with C++. -- Russel. = Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Roadm: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@lists.fedoraproject.org
