Bug Description

Gstreamer seems to use /usr/bin/gstreamer-codec-install instead of /usr/bin/gnome-codec-install

write(2, "** Message: Missing plugin: gstr"..., 162** Message: Missing plugin: gstreamer|0.10|totem|MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder|decoder-audio/mpeg, mpegversion=(int)1, layer=(int)3 (MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder)
) = 162
access("/usr/bin/gstreamer-codec-install", X_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
write(2, "** Message: Automatic missing co"..., 87** Message: Automatic missing codec installation not supported (helper script missing)

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-app-install - 0.5.12-0ubuntu1

---------------
gnome-app-install (0.5.12-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * rename gnome-codec-install to gstreamer-codec-install
    and make it a alternative (LP: #280633) to match the
    changes in the recent gstreamer sync (LP: #281606),
    (thanks to Sebastian Heinlein)
  * AppInstall/AppInstall.py:
    - do not crash on _confirm_source_activation() if no
      secondary message is given (LP: #280402)
    - fix focus problem in special activation modes (like
      codec search) (LP: #191245)
    - fix crash when adding components without component
      dependencies (LP: #194148)
  * AppInstall/activation.py:
    - remove stderr output that may cause IOError in Rhythmbox,
      the exit code is sufficient (LP: #193817)
  * AppInstall/update.py:
    - ensure correct permission for the g-a-i caches (LP: #217040)
