Farsight depends on gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad which conflicts with gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins

[Kẏra]

Binary package hint: empathy

I just purchased the full Fluendo codec pack (64-bit) and when i tried to install i got this:

dpkg: regarding gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins_7.0-1_amd64.deb containing gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins:
 gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad conflicts with gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegdemux
  gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins provides gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegdemux and is to be installed.
dpkg: error processing gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins_7.0-1_amd64.deb (--install):
 conflicting packages - not installing gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins
Errors were encountered while processing:
 gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins_7.0-1_amd64.deb

I can't replace gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad because empathy depends on it!

that is not an upstream bug

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

there is no such depends in jaunty, what ubuntu version do you use?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the issue is not a gstreamer one

I'm running Jaunty 64-bit

This is what i get when i try to remove gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad:

this might be a gstreamer farsight problem. maybe gst-farsight also works with fluendo codecs.
But for sure it's not an empathy problem, which does not depend on -bad

I can confirm this on Karmic x64

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

empathy doesn't have such depends in karmic
