yes, this is bug 1371454

unity8's AP test is clearly hanging hard (killing the lab devices), we
see a lot more errors that only show in utopic which may or may not be
related ...


in the offending landing we have thee packages involved: dbus-dpp.
qtubuntu-media and media-hub ...

* as you will see in the bug, reverting gstreamer to the 1.2 release
seems to fix the issue ...

* in utopic there are already other fixes landed on top of the offending
media-hub version, which makes rolling back the change there pretty
hard. 

* to my knowledge debian is not planning to support gstreamer 1.2 in the
long term, so if we would actually go the easiest path and turn all of
gstreamer in rtm back to 1.2 we would lose our upstream and i doubt the
security team would like to support an unsupported gstreamer version.

we will need a wider discussion that involves the ubuntu gstreamer
package maintainer and the security team to make a proper decision
here ... 
the other alternative would be to simply port everything to gst. 1.4 but
i have no idea what code changes that involves, if you have any bright
idea, please drop it in :) 

ciao
