I performed the action of portupgrade -f gstreamer\* at least THREE times before submitting a bug report. Joe, apparantly, did not care to pay attention to what I wrote. I could not determine any emthod of solving the problem since no clues existed anywhere on my system that I could find. No trace of anything missing or not properly installed realted to gstreamer. No clue where to find this mysterious "playbin" program without individually looking at every single uninstalled port on the system and searching for the file. The only thing that I could determine on my own was that totem kept not building. The completely unhelpful message from marcus simply told me to do what I had already done over, and over, and over and did not answer the specific question that I asked: Where the heck is "playbin" and why don't I have it? /Joe > Cheers, > Mezz > >
