Description Michael A. Peters 2005-02-01 11:10:34 UTC 
libvisual 0.2.0 is due to be released shortly. With a pre-release version, they
apparently changed the API but did not version the pkgconfig file, so
gst-plugins picks up on it on a ./configure and builds a plugin.

The plugin builds but does not register

/usr/libexec/gst-register-i686-0.8: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/
gstreamer-0.8/libgstlibvisual.so: undefined symbol: visual_is_initialized

gstreamer totem will not start until the bad plugin in removed.

I have requested they version the pkgconfig file so gst-plugins will not find
the pkgconfig file and build the plugin against that version, I don't know if
they will do that or not.

This doesn't seem to be a problem anymore. 
Libvisual 0.2.0 got released a couple of days ago and after installing it
pkg-config tells me this:
----------------------------------------
pkg-config --modversion libvisual
0.2.0
----------------------------------------
Because configure lookes for version == 0.1.7, the plugin won't be build.
So the above problem will not happen.

Not a problem then, closing.
