Public bug reported:

  $ cat /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pygst.py | grep 2.5
  _pygst_dir = '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gst-0.10'

So loading gst-python with python2.4 will cause the 2.5 packages to be
added to the python loadpath, causing borkage:

  $ python
  Python 2.4.3 (#2, Aug 25 2006, 14:50:06) 
  [GCC 4.1.2 20060817 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-11ubuntu1)] on linux2
  Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
  >>> import pygst; pygst.require('0.10'); import gst
  python: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gst-0.10/gst/_gst.so: undefined symbol: Py_InitModule4_64

This is on amd64.

** Affects: gst-python (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Untriaged
         Status: Unconfirmed
