Re: GStreamer seg fault

[Nick Gianakas <gianakas optonline net>]

Hi William,

Thanks for your response.  Upon further inspection, building directly
from the gstreamer directory _did_ fail afterall.  I must have
overlooked it.

Has anyone tried compiling using GCC 3.2.2?  I wonder if that's the
cause.

Regards,
Nick
