Problems I ran into so far: * mime_types.xml could not be found/read * SLPlugin failed to launch, possibly because - it's not in the expected place - a needed shared library could not be found (LD_LIBRARY_PATH) * The wrong plugin name is being tried or installed (ie, *quicktime instead of *gstreamer). * The plugin is writing to stdout (ie debug output)
Those should cover 99% of all failures, so it would be nice if they were autodetected and reported.
