Do you know what plugins are needed for ekiga?

Otherwise said, how can we find out what plugins are needed in the 
following code (videooutput-manager-clutter.gst.cpp):

    std::ostringstream name;
    name << std::string ("appsrc") << i;
    pipeline[i] = gst_pipeline_new (NULL);
    videosink = gst_element_factory_make ("autocluttersink", "videosink");
    if (videosink == NULL)
      videosink = gst_element_factory_make ("cluttersink", "videosink");
    g_object_set (videosink, "texture", texture[i], NULL);

    appsrc = gst_element_factory_make ("appsrc", name.str ().c_str ());
    conv = gst_element_factory_make ("videoconvert", NULL);

We also need to check for those plugins in configure.ac, so that ekiga 
do not fail silently if they are not available.
