No, I can't. If I install both xine and gstreamer in gnome desktop, then phonon
will force me to use xine backend. KDE4 users can switch between different
phonon backends, but gnome users can't.

That's why the installation guideline for this package is:

1.sudo apt-get install libqt4-network phonon-backend-gstreamer
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad
2.sudo apt-get remove phonon-backend-xine

See http://flavio.tordini.org/minitube/minitube-linux-setup

I think any packages should not depends on either phonon-backend-xine or
phonon-backend-gstreamer, choice between multiple backends is an important
feature for phonon.
