Arch Linux

Description:

The new DVB-t playback function in Totem 2.22 needs libgstdvb.so from gst-plugins-bad but this plugin library is missing from the gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins 0.10.6-1 package. I'm assuming that it should be in gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins and not gstreamer0.10-bad because it has an external dependency:

configure: *** checking feature: DVB Source ***
configure: *** for plug-ins: dvb ***
checking Checking for up to date dvb installation... checking linux/dvb/frontend.h usability... yes
checking linux/dvb/frontend.h presence... yes
checking for linux/dvb/frontend.h... yes
configure: *** These plugins will be built: dvb

The code for the dvb library is in the 'sys' directory of the source package. It does get built by the gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins PKGBUILD but is not installed as part of the package. Adding an extra line to the PKGBUILD to make install stuff from the 'sys' directory, i.e.:

make -C sys DESTDIR=${startdir}/pkg install || return 1

got me a package containing libgstdvb.so and I can now watch DVB-t with Totem.

Additional info:
* gstreamer0.10-bad-plugins 0.10.6-1

Steps to reproduce: Start Totem 2.22 and select Movie -> Watch TV on 'DVB Adapter 0'. This just gets a "Totem cannot play this type of media (Digital Television) because you do not have the appropriate plugins to handle it." error.
