 GStreamer | gst-plugins-base | Ver: 0.10.6

           Summary: no support for ogg flac
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 0.10.6
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-base
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: giles at xiph.org
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: 2.13/2.14
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


GStreamer, at least as shipped in Ubuntu 6.06+ supports native flac but not ogg
flac. Steps to reproduce:

$ sudo apt-get install flac
$ flac file.wav
$ totem file.flac
[ plays correctly ]
$ flac --ogg file.wav
$ totem file.ogg
[ Alert box:
   Totem could not play 'file:///home/giles/media/monty-vorbis-postfish.ogg'.
   You do not have a decoder installed to handle this file. You might need to
install the necessary plugins. ]

This is probably a bug in oggdemux not recognizing the stream type, but I
believe the actual flacdec component is in gst-plugins-good.
