Hi, I recompiled the gstreamer-0.10 source package, and installed all resulting binary packages : that made the crash disappear.
My theory is that some binary compatibility was wrong, and installing the complete set fixed it. Here is my current list of packages : $ dpkg -l | grep gst ii gstreamer-tools 0.10.21.3-1 Tools for use with GStreamer ii gstreamer0.10-alsa 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer plugin for ALSA ii gstreamer0.10-doc 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer core documentation and manuals ii gstreamer0.10-esd 0.10.8-4 GStreamer plugin for ESD ii gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 0.10.4-3 FFmpeg plugin for GStreamer ii gstreamer0.10-gnomevfs 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer plugin for GnomeVFS ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad 0.10.7-2 GStreamer plugins from the "bad" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-doc 0.10.7-2 GStreamer documentation for plugins from the "bad" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer plugins from the "base" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-dbg 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer plugins from the "base" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-doc 0.10.20-1 GStreamer documentation for plugins from the "base" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.8-4 GStreamer plugins from the "good" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-dbg 0.10.8-4 GStreamer plugins from the "good" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good-doc 0.10.8-4 GStreamer documentation for plugins from the "good" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly 0.10.8-1 GStreamer plugins from the "ugly" set ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-doc 0.10.8-1 GStreamer documentation for plugins from the "ugly" set ii gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio 0.10.11-2 GStreamer plugin for PulseAudio ii gstreamer0.10-tools 0.10.21.3-1 Tools for use with GStreamer ii gstreamer0.10-x 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer plugins for X11 and Pango ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer libraries from the "base" set ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer development files for libraries from the "bas ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.21.3-1 Core GStreamer libraries and elements ii libgstreamer0.10-0-dbg 0.10.21.3-1 Core GStreamer libraries and elements ii libgstreamer0.10-dev 0.10.21.3-1 GStreamer core development files ii python-gst0.10 0.10.12-1.1 generic media-playing framework (Python bindings) ii totem-gstreamer 2.22.2-5 A simple media player for the GNOME desktop based on GS I hope that helps, Snark on #gstreamer _______________________________________________ Pkg-gstreamer-maintainers mailing list Pkg-gstreamer-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-gstreamer-maintainers
