gst-examples Issue: Required gstreamer plugin 'nice' not found

[David Ing]

I am glad to see that it is working.

BTW, for clarification:

In an earlier message I said that my gstreamer packages were this
version:   1.19.1-2.1.18.4.fc34

This corresponds to an actual product version of Gstreamer 1.18.4.  (The
package version is confusing because of a mistake that was made by the
Fedora 34 package maintainers.)
