I filed an ITP for them ages ago.  Never really got around to finishing
the packaging work.

I haven't really looked too close at packages but the name should change
to match the standard debian python packaging such as a something like a
virtual python-gstreamer and python{2.x,2.y}-gstreamer.  Or probably
-gstreamer0.8.

I see you're using CDBS.  It has a nice distutils based mode to build
all the various python packages but I don't think anyone has done a
autoconf based one which gst-python could use.  Oh well.  Would make
generating the various python versions easier.  Can probably punt the
problem and just make 2.3 packages now.

Are you a debian developer?  Or looking to be one?  I'd be happy to
upload packages once they are working.
