Cancel dialog and install via terminal gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly_0.10.18-3ubuntu2_amd64.deb

That's not really a bug in totem, more a bug in the distro-specific installer thing that handles the missing plugin messages. I also love how it says 'Python (v.2.7) needs an mp3 decoder' ;)

Tim-Philipp, thanks for the reply. Glad to hear it isn't a multiarch issue.
Comment 3 André Klapper 2012-01-14 13:29:39 UTC 
sam_: What makes your sure that this is an upstream issue and not Ubuntu-only?
Comment 4 André Klapper 2012-01-14 13:30:13 UTC 
Also, version 3.1 was an unstable development release. Is this still a problem in stable 3.2?
Comment 5 sam_ 2012-01-14 17:46:08 UTC 
André, as an average user I can't tell the difference, the only indication I have is that it happens with Totem.
Sorry, I've selected the wrong version here and corrected it, current version is 3.0.1.

As Ubuntu uses its own package management tools and not GNOME's default ones I'm closing this as NOTGNOME for the time being. Feel free to reopen once a maintainer in the Launchpad report says that this is a GNOME issue.
