After digesting the replies (thanks to one and all!)... Is a fair
conclusion, that I should wait for 3.2.4, and when it appears, skip
doing a debian package install, but instead just compile the thing?

Yes.

There are a number of gst-* things that show up in my path now. Such
as gst-package, gst-doc, etc. Do these get built as part of the base
compile?

Yes.  Some of them come from gstreamer though.

Another question, should I purge/uninstall the stock debian packages
from my system before tackling a source download/compile?

Yes.

Then do

./configure --with-system-libsigsegv --with-system-libffi \
   --with-system-libltdl --prefix=/usr
make
make install

so that your installation will resemble as much as possible the Debian one.

I'll do the announcement tomorrow, but the tarballs should hit ftp.gnu.org in an hour or two.

Still hoping for a high level "this is how you develop stuff with
GST, coming from something like a VW background".

I guess Nicolas is the best person to answer that...
