Hi list, |

gstreamer-1 has been around for some time now and it is needed for gnome |
| 4 |
3.6 to enter the tree. Since gstreamer devs have been a bit busy irl, a |
| 5 |
few guys from gnome herd decided to take a look at it and try to bump |
| 6 |
everything. I had an itch to scratch wrt current eclass writing so I |
| 7 |
decided to start with that and bump all plugins using these new eclasses |
| 8 |
to see how they fare. The results seems to be a lot more pleasant to |
| 9 |
read and easier to understand. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Since this is basically a rewrite, I'll attach the full files for review |
| 12 |
and three ebuilds using it (one regular plugin, one plugin linking to |
| 13 |
installed gstreamer libs and one of the ebuilds with no external |
| 14 |
dependency. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The goal of these new eclasses is mainly to drop all revision dependent |
| 17 |
code while maintaining (to some extent) backward compatibility with 0.10 |
| 18 |
slot ebuilds. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
We are currently not planning on dropping the mostly empty eclasses just |
| 21 |
in case there is a need for pack specific changes in the future. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
The eclasses were already overlooked by gstreamer herd but I'd like more |
| 24 |
eyes to go over them beforing pushing this to the tree. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Since this is mostly privates eclasses, I'd like to proceed to tree |
| 27 |
inclusion by next week. There should be little to no breakage and this |
| 28 |
would help bump last 0.10 releases as well. |
