           Summary: GStreamer 1.3.90 iOS build missing armv7s, arm64,
                    x86_64 arches
    Classification: Platform
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: 1.3.90
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: packages
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: brion at pobox.com
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
     GNOME version: ---


iOS as of version 7 supports five architectures:
* armv7 (most older devices)
* armv7s (iPhone 5, 5C, iPad 4th-gen)
* arm64 (iPhone 5s, iPad Air, iPad Mini Retina)
* i386 (32-bit simulator)
* x86_64 (64-bit simulator)

Currently the GStreamer iOS binary release for 1.3.90 only seems to include
armv7 and i386:

  $ cd ~/Library/Developer/GStreamer/iPhone.sdk/GStreamer.framework
  $ file GStreamer 
  GStreamer: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
  GStreamer (for architecture armv7):    current ar archive random library
  GStreamer (for architecture i386):    current ar archive random library

...which means a GStreamer-using app can't include optimized builds for armv7s
or arm64 devices, or the 64-bit simulator.

It looks like you end up building an armv7-only app (or i386-only on
simulator), which runs but won't take advantage of the newer instruction sets.
