## Introduction to GStreamer Bad Plug-ins

The GStreamer Bad Plug-ins package contains a set of plug-ins that aren't up to par compared to the rest. They might be close to being good quality, but they're missing something - be it a good code review, some documentation, a set of tests, a real live maintainer, or some actual wide use.

This package is known to build and work properly using an LFS-10.1 platform.

## Installation of GStreamer Bad Plug-ins

### Note

If you do not have an Objective-C compiler installed, the build system for this package will emit a warning about a failed sanity check. This is harmless, and it is safe to continue.

### Note

If you need a plugin for a given dependency, that dependency needs to be installed before this package.

Install GStreamer Bad Plug-ins by running the following commands:

    mkdir build &&
    cd    build &&

    meson  --prefix=/usr       \
           -Dbuildtype=release \
           -Dpackage-origin=http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/ \
           -Dpackage-name="GStreamer 1.18.3 BLFS" &&
    ninja

To test the results, issue: ninja test. Several tests need a terminal emulator in a graphical session.

Now, as the `root` user:

    ninja install
