Hi Ludo and Ricardo,
The 'uridecodebin' error is a result of GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH not being
set. However, the recent patch to gstreamer adds that to its native search
paths, so that error should be resolved now on an updated system. I had a
line defining GST_PLUGIN_SYSTEM_PATH in my .bashrc, but I was able to
remove it after that patch was applied. Rhythmbox is working without errors
for me.
I've also realized that some of the packages I put under inputs should
probably be propagated inputs, so I'm attaching an updated patch which
changes that.
I am currently using guix over ubuntu.
Thanks,
David
