This is on Mandriva Cooker with gstreamer 0.10.19 and gst-plugins-bad 0.10.7. I
have enabled the build of wildmidi, but it does not work at all:

Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
** Message: don't know how to handle audio/midi
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
ERROR: from element /playbin0/decodebin0: A audio/midi decoder plugin is
