#6 Soname conflict with gst-transcoder

We've run into an unfortunate problem on the packaging front in Fedora - it seems that both the transcode plugin in GEntrans and gst-transcoder (from my understanding, a GStreamer transcoding API for use in Pitivi) provide a plugin with the soname libgsttranscode.so. I'm not too certain how the gst-transcoder upstream feels about this, as they seem to have renamed the plugin relatively recently, but a possible resolution might be to namespace/rename the plugin here.

    Oops, in the latest releases I have been namespacing the (GObject) class names and plugin names (as registered within the plugins) to avoid such clashes, but it looks like I overlooked the plugin files themselves. So I will soon come up with a new release to handle that.

    I appreciate the prompt response, thank you. =) I'll go ahead and push this to the Fedora repos as soon as it's ready.

    Should be taken care of now, unless I missed something else ...

    Thanks for the quick fix, 1.2.1 has now been submitted as an update in Fedora.
