Compiling swfdec with USE=-gstreamer "fixes" the problem.

Compiling swfdec with USE="-doc" also "fixes" the problem!

Here's a snippet of build output on my system:

I re-emerged gtk-doc (dev-util/gtk-doc-1.10-r1) and that allowed swfdec to
build successfully with both the 'doc' and 'gstreamer' use flags.

re emerging gtk-doc had no effect for me. It still shows the same sandbox
violations.

Sorry, re-emerging gtk-doc tuned out to be a red herring! What actually allowed
me to emerge swfdec successfully was running the following commands after it
failed:

  cd /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/swfdec-0.6.2/work/swfdec-0.6.2/doc
  make clean
  make

and then emerging swfdec again. This is not a valid fix as it leaves mess
behind in the /root directory, and besides, it's easier to emerge with
FEATURES="-sandbox" (also not a valid fix of course).

swfdec-scan is linked to libgstreamer and libgconf. As a result, when these
libraries are intialized, they try to access /root.

Setting GST_REGISTRY (for example to /tmp/registry.xml) will avoid gstreamer
access violation. gconf violation is more difficult though.

I cleaned out the the files left behind in the /root directory from my earlier
experiments (to start with a clean slate) and tried Nguyen Thai Ngoc Duy's
patched ebuild. It worked for me!

FTR, here are my USE flags for the ebuild:

-ffmpeg -oss -pulseaudio" 0 kB

Thanks for the fix!

Please mark as blocking bug 214260.

I'm waiting for at least one more user confirming this bug is fixed before I
commit it. So please test.

Confirm ebuild fixes bug here.
