           Summary: configure can't see libFLAC installed outside /usr/lib
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-plugins-good
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: elle.uca at libero.it
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Building my GNOME jhbuild sandbox, I tried to install xiph stuff under
/opt/gnome2 too, instead using -dev packages from distro.

Unfortunately it seems that gst-plugins-good is unable to check libFLAC* stuff
under /opt/gnome2/lib, so the plugin is not compiled.
