GStreamer does not depend on GNOME. The only hard dependency is GLib really
(and Qt on Linux depends on that too, as far as I know).

This looks more like a packaging issue to me. If Debian/Ubuntu chose to package
gst-plugins-good in such a way that it depends on gconf (instead of splitting
gconf-related things into a separate package), there's not much we can do about
that. Same for most other dependencies.

I believe gst-plugins-good from source can be compiled just fine without
anything gconf-related installed (and passing --disable-gconf and
--disable-gconftool to configure will disable this even if gconf-related items
are installed).

In short, this very much looks like NOTGNOME to me.
