I don't yet know the solution, but I am having the same problem. It seems that neon is doing the same thing.
I'll repost if I come up with an answer.

If you run

# equery list gst-plugins-

you will get a list of all gst-plugins, i.e.

You will probably find some of these plugins are from version 0.8.11. These all need to be updated to version 0.8.12.
That should fix the problem.

Good Luck

when i try : equery list gst-plugins-
[ Searching for package 'gst-plugins-' in all categories among: ]
* installed packages

nothing is being showed...

I remember seeing something like this before on a different package, it is a pain in the ass. :/
this is how I fixed it:

Code: Select all

echo "=media-libs/gst-plugins-0.8.12" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

granted that that will get you something that is static so you will have to check the updates for that every few weeks or what not.

@Mgiese: you have some (but not all!) of your gst-plugins-<x>-0.8* packages in /etc/portage/package.mask. Find the one that is missing by

Code: Select all

emerge --tree -uvaDN world

Then add the one it tries to downgrade to your /etc/portage/package.keywords. Here is what I have in there:

Code: Select all

=media-libs/gst-plugins-0.8*
=media-libs/gstreamer-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-esd-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-oss-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-mad-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-ogg-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-vorbis-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-theora-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-flac-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-libvisual-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-cdparanoia-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-gnomevfs-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-xvideo-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-mpeg2dec-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-dvdread-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-dvdnav-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-pango-0.8*
=media-plugins/gst-plugins-a52dec-0.8*

Alternatively, remove all gst-plugins-0.8 related entries from /etc/portage/package.keywords and go stable on them again
