The goal here is that this script will *not* be for Jokosher
developers who want to track the svn HEAD or gstreamer CVS HEAD.
Instead, we will nominate a particular CVS revision of GStreamer that
we *know* works with Jokosher 0.2, and the script will download and
compile that specific revision (and ignore any later changes).

It shouldn't be. However, it won't actually *install* dependencies,
it'll just tell you that you need them and you have to work out for
yourself how to actually install them on your distribution. I can't do
a lot better than that without making this a proper install system
rather than a quick script, which I'm trying to avoid. This script
should only be needed for 0.2; by the time we get to the next release,
1.0 in early 2007, the GStreamer in distributions should be good
enough to run it.
