[gst-devel] Gstreamer broken after automatic update

[Andres Gonzalez]

Hello,

A few weeks ago, after a Synaptic automatic update (i.e. i didn't touch 
anything this time :-) ), GStreamer applications stopped working in my 
system.

I need to make GStreamer work again. ANY help appreciated!

Thanks!
Andrés
