Giacomo, although the configure/make/install seemed to be successful, I 
noticed this line in the configure output:

   checking for gobject-introspection... no

For gst-rtsp-server (and other GStreamer stuff) to be accessible in 
Python through gi.require_version(), it needs to be built with 
gobject-introspection enabled.

try "./configure --help" to see what the options are... there should be 
something like "--enable-introspection=yes" to turn on introspection.

Try running configure with that option and see if it turns on 
gobject-introspection. If it doesn't, you may need to install the 
gobject-introspection package on your system.

Cheers,

Mark.
