troubles with gstreamer installation from Cerbero!

[Daniel Rossi]

It builds and bundles system packages. If you hack this and include in 
library path. It conflicts with other software. My git client broke 
adding the  path to the tarball location.

Best to use the debain git sources, build in a chroot environment with 
git-pbuilder. And it will reference system libraries.

Apart from working inside it's own shell, I don't get the point of that 
build system. I wasted 3 weeks with it. And then took me another 2 to 
get an automated build working for all the debian projects so they are 
built all at once and added to a repository. There is 4 or 5 I needed to 
check out. I can run updates to the sources and rebuild packages. I can 
customise the configure  for these in the rules config as well to remove 
modules I don't need.

My target is both amd64 and armhf and was able to build both on amd64.

I now have  1.16.1 working in RPI where it's version is 1.14 without srt 
support I needed.
