[Bug 1363973] Re: gnome-media is unmaintained and needs upgrading

 

Seems that the only use of this source is for the  gstreamer-properties capplet.  (currently broken in 15.04
Is there a replacement for gstreamer-properties or does gnome no longer need or desire it ?

Title:
  gnome-media is unmaintained and needs upgrading

Status in gnome-media package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in gnome-media package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  The package version of gnome-media in current development releases of
  Debian and GNOME is 3.4, but:

   - The upstream GNOME developers are not longer supporting it (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677199)
   - GNOME Sound Recorder in this package hasn't been working since November 2011 (https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=649510)
   - The package has been kept in this version since May 2013 (https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=gnome-media)
   - GNOME Sound Recorder has been rewritten from scratch in JavaScript (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677199#c9)

  So this package needs upgrading within Ubuntu.
