1. try to uninstall Gstreamer
2. uninstallation fails, because rmdir on Solaris does NOT have option
--ignore-fail-on-non-empty

-- Uninstalling /opt/BGSgnome-2.6.2/share/gtk-doc/html/gstreamer-0.8/index.sgml
if test -d /opt/BGSgnome-2.6.2/share/gtk-doc/html/gstreamer-0.8; then rmdir -p

On Solaris, you can use "grmdir", which is not part of standard Solaris
distribution and must be installed separately (Solaris Software companion CD or
www.sunfreeware.com)

Is that argument really needed anyway?
