I'm running our published 2.7.2-uspace deb on a Jessie machine that I installed using the normal (upstream) debian install image, not our LinuxCNC Live/Install image. When I run "linuxcnc /usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/sim/gscreen/gscreen ini", it pops up a window with this text, and fails to start:

Gscreen encountered an error.  The following information may be useful in troubleshooting:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gscreen", line 3688, in <module>
    app = Gscreen()
  File "/usr/bin/gscreen", line 486, in __init__
    self.audio = Player()
  File "/usr/bin/gscreen", line 151, in __init__
    self.player = gst.element_factory_make("playbin", "player")
ElementNotFoundError: playbin

Looks like gscreen has a dependency on some outside package that we fail to declare in our debian/control file.

Running the gmoccapy sample config on master (fb1afd4) gives the same error.
