David Craven skribis: > I'm not sure about patch 0001, but I did some packaging of gstreamer pack= ages > for spice, and I think GST_PLUGIN_PATH is not needed. Why do you think it=E2=80=99s unneeded? The GST_PLUGIN_PATH definition was added after the discussion at: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-08/msg00565.html The reason was to allow GStreamer plugins installed in the user=E2=80=99s profile to be found automatically. I think this remains a valid reason. WDYT? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
