gstreamer/gconf issues in compiling totem,gnome-media

[Indech]

With compiling totem and gnome-media (and possibly other programs that use similar gstreamer checks) I end up with memory leaks when the compile is checking whether gstreamer is installed.

Totem compiles to this point:

Code: Select all

checking for glib-mkenums... /usr/bin/glib-mkenums
checking for GST... yes
GStreamer-0.10
checking GStreamer 0.10 playbin plugin...

at which point it stalls and using 'ps aux' shows the process "/usr/bin/gst-inspect-0.10 playbin" endlessly eating memory till I kill the emerge, or kill the command, which results in

Code: Select all

configure: error:
Cannot find required GStreamer-0.10 plugin 'playbin'.
It should be part of gst-plugins-base. Please install it.

When checking the output of 'gst-inspect-0.10 playbin' by itself it works with no error.


With gnome-media it stalls at the same point:

Code: Select all

checking whether to enable IPv6... checking for VUMETER... yes
checking for GSR... yes
checking for GStreamer 0.10 playbin plugin... 

at which point the process "/usr/libexec/gconfd-2 8" leaks. If I kill that process and then "gst-inspect-0.10 playbin" (gst-inspect-0.10 doesn't leak with gnome-media it's just forever stalled after killing gconf-2)

Code: Select all

configure: WARNING:
                     Cannot find required GStreamer-0.10 plugin 'playbin'.
                     It should be part of gst-plugins-base. Please install it.
                     You need it installed for the sound recorder to work

It still compiles and each time before killing gst-inspect-0.10 audioconvert, gst-inspect-0.10 audioresample, gst-inspect-0.10 gconfaudiosink, and gst-inspect-0.10 gconfaudiosrc I kill a new leaking "/usr/libexec/gconfd-2 8" process. After that gnome-media will succesfully compile.

emerge --info:

Of note I originally had this issue with gcc 3.4.6-r2, and I've also tried doing "emerge -e totem" with CFLAGS="-O" with the same result. Anyone have any idea where the problem is coming from?

[krinn]

you can at least check that you're gst-inspect is working & that playbin is present

Code: Select all

gst-inspect-0.10 | grep playbin
playbin:  playbin: Player Bin

I've already tested gst-inspect-0.10 with playbin and all the others and they are found and work fine.

When doing further testing, I tried unarchiving totem and configured and compiled manually, which went fine. And after stripping all optimizations/configuration options from make.conf the problem still occurs when trying to compile the ebuild. So it seems somehow emerge is screwing it up somewhere, possibly somewhere in an eclass that totem inherits? Any ideas?

I had the same problem today.
An

Code: Select all

emerge -a gst-plugins-base

helps for me.

I have been trying to get totem installed lately and I'm running into the exact same problem. I run ~amd64 and I've recompiled my entire system once, updated and recompiled with what I could, including all of the gstreamer packages.

I have been tracking a few bugs that seem to be related: #179678, #180931, and #143810.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Same prob here with AMD 64bits

- following bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201867

Anyone solved this yet ?

Best regards

[eMxyzptlk]

I'm having the same problem too and I can't get passed it, any workarounds or solution for that matter ??

I don't use NFS, just normal FS...

Thx

i'm getting stuck on this now, but the versions in play are totem-2.24.3 and gst-plugins*-0.10.20....

exactly the same issue from 2007... :/ i've rebuilt liboil, gstreamer, gst-plugins-base, gst-plugins-gio
