Hi.  I run arch linux and am trying to install gstreamer to use with gnash,
mostly for webrowser plugin viewing.  I already got gnash installed and tested
via terminal but as you likely know, it won't work in the browser (it wasn't
immediately clear that gstreamer and then the gst-plugins-** do the codex work
when I installed gnash)

I first got the gstreamer 1.0.5.1 package, and was successful, but gnash did
not work with it, and some duckduckgo searching seemed to indicate that
although it is an older version, gstreamer 0.10 is what gnash interfaces with. 
If someone can verify this, or knows that this is incorrect, please let me
know.


My gstreamer0.10 compile error:

ERROR - """

Running suite(s): GstObject

(lt-gstobject:14853): GLib-GObject-ERROR **: cannot create instance of abstract
(non-instantiatable) type `GstObject'
87%: Checks, Failures: 0, Errors:1
gst/gstobject.c:77:E:general:test_fail_abstract_new:0: (after this point)
Received signal 5 (Trace/breakpoint trap), expected 11 (Segmentation fault)

FAIL: gst/gstobject

"""
/ERROR

At the bottom it sais "1 of 74 tests failed" and to report it to
bugzilla.gnome.org (so here I am), and finally, a bold Error and Aborting
notice.

I am on a Dell Latitude D630 if that helps (about 5 years old - I am a linux
experimenter right now - hoping to fully switch soon)

If you need anything else, please let me know (you may need to tell me the
terminal command).  It is probably obvious I am a recent gpl convert and still
very much a newbie.

Thanks for the time you all donate!
