PackageKit-gstreamer-plugin is now available in Fedora 9, but the
version of RPM in F-9 is still 4.4.2.3-3, meaning that the GStreamer
provides patch (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=438225) is
not applied yet.
This leads to an inconsistent interface: when playing a file for which
no GStreamer codec is installed using Totem or Banshee, the codec
service will get triggered, but users who have RPMfusion-nonfree
enabled would then be surprised to be told there is no match.
Since the plugin has already landed, we can't quite block it from
Fedora 9. Could F-9's RPM be patched, so that Gstreamer plugin
providers can then rebuild their RPMs to take advantage of the plugin?
