I don't want 0.4.1 and 0.4.2 installed at the same time, that is why I
instructed apt-get to "upgrade."

If they depend on 0.4.1, why didn't I get a dependency error on
"upgrading?"

3) apt-get upgrade doesn't remove packages

So, if it doesn't remove packages, how do you "upgrade."  This makes
apt-get a install once and no more "upgrades."  Completely useless.

rb and mm are not in the gstreamer apt-get repository.
