Well, the package works fine with the command that you gave me, but unless I
am misunderstanding it doesn't solve my problem because I need playbin (and
a few other plugins -- let's see: vorbisenc, oggmux, lame, wavenc, flacenc,
filesink, audioconvert, cdparanoiasrc).

You mentioned that playbin worked for you in your C application.  I was
figuring on running the pipeline from the command line using gst-launch
because my program is written in Python and I doubt that Python bindings
are available for OABuild.
