Description Xavier Claessens 2016-04-25 17:43:41 UTC 
It is annoying to have different tarballs for each part of gstreamer. It is easier to ship one big tarball containing everything instead.

package: Add --embed-deps command line option

When building tarball for a package, this option also pulls
all package's deps (recursively) files into the tarball.

Olivier: I don't have push persmissions for GStreamer, can you please merge it for me?
Comment 6 Xavier Claessens 2018-01-09 15:01:55 UTC 
Nicolas pointed me that gstreamer-1.0.package already produce only one tarball because it's a MetaPackage. I didn't know about that special class of package and indeed that seems to cover my use case.
