           Summary: gstreamer/gst-plugins build broken; gstreamer installs
                    to wrong location and gst-plugins can't find it
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gstreamer (core)
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: newren at gmail.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: 2.17/2.18
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


When I get to gst-plugins in jhbuild, I get the error:

checking for GST... no
configure: Package gstreamer-0.10 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `gstreamer-0.10.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'gstreamer-0.10' found
configure: error: no gstreamer-0.10 >= 0.10.11.1 (GStreamer) found
  configure failed

Apparently this is caused by the fact that gstreamer installs to
/opt/gnome2/lib instead of the correct path of /opt/gnome2/lib64.  Even if you
argue that gstreamer always builds 32 bit binaries or something and thus should
be in $prefix/lib, why can't gst-plugins find what is installed by gstreamer?

I think this is just bug 307352 returning, but I'm kind of new to this whole
x86_64 thing.
