Public bug reported:
freemix is not functional due to dependency on gnome-video-thumbnailer
which does not exist anymore, also when replacing it with an existing
thumbnailer it does not work properly. E.g. I got it to crash with this
by jut clicking around a bit:
File "/usr/share/freemix/engine.py", line 102, in OnDynamicPad
pad.link(self.colorspace.get_pad("sink"))
gst.LinkError: <enum GST_PAD_LINK_WAS_LINKED of type GstPadLinkReturn>
The package is of very bad quality installing files directly into
/usr/share/pyshared, causing upgrade failures like bug 882297.
The last upload was 2009, and upstream seems dead since then too.
I propose to remove the binary and source package from precise.
It has no rdepends and pretty low popcon vote.
