## Installation of GStreamer Good Plug-ins

### Note

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

Apply a patch to allow the build to complete with libvpx-1.8.

    patch -Np1 -i ../gst-plugins-good-1.14.4-vpx_1.8-1.patch &&
    autoreconf -fi

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

    ./configure --prefix=/usr \
                --with-package-name="GStreamer Good Plugins 1.14.4 BLFS" \
                --with-package-origin="http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/"  &&
    make

To test the results, issue: make check. The souphttpsrc test is known to fail.

Now, as the `root` user:

    make install
