Well, here's what I did: I opened my virtual Maverick's /etc/apt/sources.list up in gedit and replaced all instances of maverick with natty. OH NO YOU DIDN'T, I can hear you say. But hey, I'll just roll back to a previous snapshot when I'm done, no problem. So, after that I ran an apt-get update and an apt-get upgrade but I didn't actually upgrade anything. I just wanted a list of gstreamer packages to upgrade, specifically: gstreamer0.10-alsa gstreamer0.10-nice gstreamer0.10-gnonlin gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-apps gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-tools gstreamer0.10-x apt-get install <the above list> which upgraded what I wanted as well as these packages: libasound2 libc-bin libc-dev-bin libc6 libc6-dev libgssdp-1.0-2 libgstfarsight0.10-0 libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 libgstreamer0.10-0 libgupnp-1.0-3 libjpeg62 libnice10 libnih-dbus1 libnih1 liborc-0.4-0 libpython2.7 libsqlite3-0 multiarch-support python2.7 python2.7-minimal I realised that soundconverter wasn't installed at that point so I just pulled it down with apt-get install soundconverter. And look at that: anton@spire:~$ soundconverter SoundConverter 1.4.4 ** Message: pygobject_register_sinkfunc is deprecated (GstObject) using Gstreamer version: 0.10.32, Python binding version: 0.10.19 using gio 'lame' element not found, disabling MP3. 'faac' element not found, disabling AAC. using 2 thread(s) The encode went fine and the resulting file had no stutter every 40,5 s. The next step is to just bite the bullet and do a full apt-get upgrade. Will get back to this bug when that's finished.
