[Bug-gnash] [Bug 528692] [NEW] 'undefined symbol: _Py_RefTotal' related to Gstreamer

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This happened on my Karmic on the use of two different binaries so far:
* gtk-gnash (also gnash)
* epiphany

In the later case, this is what came out of Epiphany on the console:

 (epiphany-browser:7534): GStreamer-WARNING **: Failed to load plugin
'/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstpython_d.so':
/usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstpython_d.so: undefined symbol:
_Py_RefTotal

The message on gnash was very similar (same reference to undefined
symbol in same library) and actually made it silently freeze.

I don't actually know where that lib belongs so I can't point to the
concerning package.

I found two other bugs referencing this message but it seems each application 
has taken a particular (instead of generalised) fix for this.
Then again, someone did mention in one of those that the problem is related to 
apps using the old python classes... So... maybe it is each app's job to do 
it...?
If so, please let me know so I can report this to the apropriate applications.

Here are the two other bugs:
* Bug #377226 - https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/listen/+bug/377226
* Bug #114053 - https://launchpad.net/bugs/114053

Thank you.
