[gst-devel] Linux distro preferred for gstreamer?

[Florent]

Hi,

I've been having a similar problematic, and we chose to stick to
Ubuntu. Depending on your stable gst version requirement:
* 8.04 will offer you LTS 0.10.18 gstreamer packages distribution
* 8.10 will offer you 0.10.21 gstreamer packages distribution

So far, we're very happy with Ubuntu hardware support and overall
gstreamer stability; but i aknowledge the lack of a lightweight
gstreamer-oriented distribution for dedicated multimedia solutions
deployment. It would be great to start such a project !
