Bug Description

It doesn't concern libgstreamer-plugins, but this package :
http://packages.ubuntu.com/warty/gnome/gstreamer-player-nautilus Yet, the
bugzilla doesn't allow me to specify a package which is not in the list below...

With warty, this package allow to play a sound file preview when someone put the
cursor above the file in Nautilus.

Now this package is no longer available. It was already the case with Hoary...

I get again mp3 previews with mp321 package. But it doesn't work with .ogg file...

you can install ogg123 for ogg files. Upstream have some patch to use
gstreamer0.8 from nautilus for that and will maybe change that for the next
GNOME version

The ogg123 package isn't available in the repositories... I use only the
official repositories, my source.list is entirely created with the add button in
the Synaptic preferences and universe and multiverse are enabled.

Would you mind to ensure ogg321 is still downloadable from archive.ubuntu.com,
the default site?

Thanks for all...

I apologize : I meant ogg123 and not ogg321. Anyway, they are both ghosts on my
Synaptic..

ogg123 is shipped with the vorbis-tools package

Vorbis-tools is already installed. But Ican't get ogg preview... Only mp3
preview works...

I've seen on Ubuntu-fr a guy who said that he knew that ogg preview needs
vorbis-tools, but it doesn't work on his ubuntu too.
