[Bug 966294] Re: Ubiquity loops forever from ubiquity_webcam_play

[Stéphane Graber]

Running ubiquity with the following packages downgrade to their Oneiric version makes it work:
root at ubuntu-test64:~# dpkg -l | grep 0.10.35
gstreamer0.10-plugins-base             0.10.35-1                               GStreamer plugins from the "base" set
gstreamer0.10-x                        0.10.35-1                               GStreamer plugins for X11 and Pango
libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0        0.10.35-1                               GStreamer libraries from the "base" set
libgstreamer0.10-0                     0.10.35-1                               Core GStreamer libraries and elements

Upgrading libgstreamer0.10-0 to the Precise version re-creates the
problem. So the regression likely happened in the gstreamer0.10 source.
