Hi,

I have the latest gstreamer (from exp, 0.10.9.3-1), which, according to 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=488074, should have 
gstapp, still I receive an error during configure:

checking for GSTREAMER... configure: error: Package requirements 
(gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.21.3 gstreamer-interfaces-0.10) 
were not met:
Requested 'gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.21.3' but version of 
GStreamer Base Plugins Libraries is 0.10.20


After removing the version test in configure.ac, I receive:

../../../../lib/engine/components/gstreamer//gst-videoinput.cpp:43:32: 
error: gst/app/gstappsink.h: No such file or directory

If I understand correctly, debian does not still have the necessary 
version, is that right?
