[gentoo-amd64] totem again
hi there, because my stable totem didnt work, i just emerged 1.4 which is masked ~amd64. i emerged it with all its depending gstreamer and -plugins. stable totem exited without any useful error message, 1.4 crashes at startup with $ totem (totem:1051): Gtk-WARNING **: A floating object was finalized. This means that someone called g_object_unref() on an object that had only a floating reference; the initial floating reference is not owned by anyone and must be removed with gtk_object_sink() after a normal reference is obtained with g_object_ref(). and a window saying Totem could not startup Failed to create a GStreamer play object.
