[gst-devel] please help: segmentation fault with gst-register

[Daniel Alonso Gázquez]

Hello,

I'm trying to install the last garnome and everything goes well until
the installation of the garball gst-plugins (needed by gnome-media).

This installation is a fresh installation of garnome-0.23 over a just
installed Suse 8.1 system.

The make process goes on until it reaches de post-install phase. In that
moment the postinstall tries to run gst-register. Nevertheless
gst-register ends with a segmentation fault. 

Here's the output:

-----------------

------------------------------------------

If no one has ever found this bug I would like to help. Unfortunately
I'm very new to linux/gnome development. I've tried to run gst-register
trough gdb and this is the output:

-------------------------------------------

Starting program: /garnome/bin/gst-register

0x40023600 in frame_dummy () from /garnome/lib/libgstreamer-0.6.so.0

----------------------------------------------

So the problem seems to be with frame-dummy in libgstreamer-0.6.so.0.

Please, could somebody help me?
