Public bug reported: It's almost possible to use GStreamer from PyGI. The hang up is that currently you can't get EOS signals from a pipeline, and that the message bus is overall broken.
As far as I know, this is because pygobject doesn't grok the GstMiniObject type, which mean Gst.Message is an unknown type. There is an upstream bug with a patch (work in progress): https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=631901 I'm not sure if this would be too invasive a change to deliver to Oneiric users through a SRU, but this would help smooth the transition to PyGI (and possibly only shipping Python3 on the CD) for Precise as app devs could be working with PyGI and GStreamer right now on Oneiric. For what it's worth, this would really help Novacut. Either way, lets make sure PyGI + GStreamer rocks in Precise! (Side note: this also raises a question... GStreamer 0.10 or 1.0 in Precise?)
