Please see: http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/doc/gstreamer/head/faq/html/chapter-getting.html#gstreamer-versions-explained cupid was written for a very old and now unmaintained version of GStreamer (0.8.x). You can't use it with GStreamer 0.10. Don't bother installing 0.8 either, just find some other software. In any case, not a GStreamer bug, so closing.
