GStreamer Build on CentOS 5.6 64bit

[chad hanna]

Hi Greg,

Do you mean that CentOS 5.6 should have the correct dependencies but
that it won't compile? Or just that the versions are too old period?

My colleagues and I have built gstreamer, plugins good, bad and
gst-python on CentOS *5.3* but only by creating and installing custom
rpms of the following in /opt (or a home directory, or whatever):

flex 2.5.35
glib2 2.22.5
glib2-devel 2.22.5
pygobject2 2.18.0
pygobject2-devel 2.18.0
pygobject2-doc 2.18.0

I am not sure how good of an idea this was, but things seem to work
okay so far.  It was for a cluster computing environment that will not
have an OS upgrade for a while, and we needed to make progress with
what was there.  If you decide this information is useful I can try to
recall any of the gotchas that we came across...

best wishes,

Chad
