We've been around in a few circles with this. The problem is that if we
apply this patch we have no clue which gst-plugin from the good, the bad
and the ugly provides something you're after to include in an image.
This results in bitbake being pretty clueless about whether a given
build will succeed or not. In general I'm not a fan of having
non-deterministic builds as they tend to annoy users.
If this position isn't acceptable then we'll probably have to move to a
situation where we list which plugins each of the packages builds and
drop the dyanmic provides. That is a maintenance pain and I don't take
that step lightly but I don't see any other options. I'm open to
suggestions though.
Cheers,
Richard
