I'm on ubuntu wily. And yes file is present in directory but not found during compilation process

[INIZAN yannick (inizan-yannick)]

Not a bug : include directories changed in this package, we have to reconfigure project for a correct build

What are you trying to build?

I would say that it's probably not using gstreamer's pkg-config file
correctly; this gives you the right CFLAGS to use.

  laney@wily> pkg-config --cflags gstreamer-1.0
  -pthread -I/usr/include/gstreamer-1.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gstreamer-1.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include

I just fixed a problem quite similar to this in telepathy-qt5.

Cheers,

I had the same problem in a large project compiled from source. But, removing all compilation cache and recompiling worked. Probably something must have changed in the ubuntu package between my previous compilation and now.
