What can I do? Steps to reproduce: 1. Installation 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Does this happen every time? Other information:
This is not a GStreamer bug. You need to install the libmpeg2 package for your distro and also the package that contains the development header files for libmpeg2 (usually this has a -dev or -devel suffix). On debian/ubuntu, this would be: $ sudo apt-get install libmpeg2-4 libmpeg2-4-dev If you're using some other distro, the required packages might be called differently. You might want to look into finding gst-plugins-ugly packages for your distribution though - they are almost certainly available somewhere (since installing GStreamer things from source can be a bit tricky and if you already run into a problem with configure, you're probably going to run into other problems as well such as prefix issues etc.).
