Add gstreamer initialization

Hi,

the replaygain plugin does not work as it seems to lack an initialization call to gstreamer.

I had reported this issue in first place in the Debian bug tracking system, also a patch is available there. You can find the complete report here: https://bugs.debian.org/855374

Greetings - Fuddl

Even if this fixes something, it's the wrong way to fix it.

Also, I can't reproduce the problem.  What package does gi/overrides/Gst.py come from?
Comment 3 Bruno Kleinert 2017-08-02 18:39:21 UTC 
You are right, on my system I also cannot reproduce the bug anymore. Even if the patch was wrong, it did not break anything visible to until today. The plugin loads fine again without any changes.

I had a look a my report in the Debian bug tracker, and looking at version suffixes of depending packages I might have reported the issue at a bad point in time. The debian revision suffix of rhythmbox suggests there was a library transition going on back in February. Maybe it was caused by an older gstreamer version, I cannot tell anymore.

You can close this ticket.

ok, that's kind of weird.  I can't see where Gst.py comes from and it doesn't exist on other machines I've looked at.
