Re: [arch-general] gstreamer0.10-good-plugins need a whole load of GNOME stuff?

Excerpts from Ananda Samaddar's message of 2010-04-20 16:34:21 +0200:

Is there some reason that the gstreamer good plugins set needs a whole load of GNOME crap?

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gstreamer0.10-good-plugins/

I've recently switched to XFCE and I'd like to avoid GNOME dependencies. Is it possible to recompile from abs without all these dependencies?

thanks,

Ananda

I'm with you on this, the gnome dependencies of this package annoyed me a couple of times and is the reason why I avoid using gstreamer wherever possibly. A multimedia backend that depends on a specific desktop environment is just broken. I'm using no DE, why should I install gnome specific stuff?
