checking whether to build the GStreamer media backend... checking for
GSTREAMER... no
configure: error: requirements to build the GStreamer media backend not
met. Use --disable-gstreamer or install the missing packages
program finished with exit code 1
I think we should make GStreamer optional, so that --enable-gstreamer
should be set explicitly if you want the gstreamer avmedia plug-in, and
not forcing to use --disable-gstreamer by default.

GStreamer was disabled with enable_copyleft set to no by default:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/ooo/trunk/main/configure.in?revision=1213190&view=markup#l1252
Removing enable_copyleft left enable_gstreamer=yes
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/incubator/ooo/trunk/main/configure.in?revision=1213190&view=markup#l214
Wether Gstreamer should be considered as copy-left or as a system
library is not clear yet, at least I didn't get any conclusion on this
thread http://s.apache.org/Pxk
IMO it should be disabled by default, but enabled in AOO builds (a release
in Linux with no audio and sound support is a no-go; Oracle understood
this, they built GStreamer by default and put the plugin in the brand
packages but without making the system GStreamer library a requirement;
for sure this has to be changed, may be moving the plugin to its own
package and adding the system requirement to the deb/rpm package).

I committed http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1215522
Gstreamer is now disabled by default.
To enable compilation of the GStreamer AVMedia plug-in now one has to
provide --enable-gstreamer, and configure will fail if you do not have
the headers and libraries (gstreamer-devel in Fedora, may be
libgstreamer0.10-dev in Ubuntu).
Oracle default builds came with the GStreamer AVMedia plugin, no audio
and video support on Linux is a no-go, IMO.

Why did this just happen now? What has changed?
We have had many successful builds over the last few weeks, and the
machine setup has not changed.
Is this due to the category_b change?
I will add --disable-gstreamer temporarily, if there is no other fix.
