Update for gstreamer, gst-plugins-{base,good,bad,ugly} and 19 gst-plugins
Here is a portage tree patch from current master to update gstreamer, gst-plugins-{base,good,bad,ugly} and 19 gst-plugins to version 1.24.5.
The only ebuild file that required a change was gst-plugins-bad: I removed the 2 patches because it seems they were applied upstream.
All other packages are simple file renames.
I did not touch the 50 other plugin packages and leave that for others to do.
Updating the system with the new packages did not require any rebuilds, it seems to be a simple version bump.
I wonder if the bug's title needs to be adjusted to reflect that this is a version bump request? https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.24/#1.24.6 Mark, maybe a pull request from you (or whoever can) could bring this faster into Gentoo. 1.24.6 The sixth 1.24 bug-fix release (1.24.6) was released on 29 July 2024. This release only contains bugfixes and it should be safe to update from 1.24.x. Highlighted bugfixes in 1.24.6 Fix compatibility with FFmpeg 7.0 qmlglsink: Fix failure to display content on recent Android devices adaptivedemux: Fix handling of closed caption streams cuda: Fix runtime compiler loading with old CUDA tookit decodebin3 stream selection handling fixes d3d11compositor, d3d12compositor: Fix transparent background mode with YUV output d3d12converter: Make gamma remap work as intended h264decoder: Update output frame duration for interlaced video when second field frame is discarded macOS audio device provider now listens to audio devices being added/removed at runtime Rust plugins: audioloudnorm, s3hlssink, gtk4paintablesink, livesync and webrtcsink fixes videoaggregator: preserve features in non-alpha caps for subclasses with non-system memory sink caps vtenc: Fix redistribute latency spam v4l2: fixes for complex video formats va: Fix strides when importing DMABUFs, dmabuf handle leaks, and blocklist unmaintained Intel i965 driver for encoding waylandsink: Fix surface cropping for rotated streams webrtcdsp: Enable multi_channel processing to fix handling of stereo streams Various bug fixes, memory leak fixes, and other stability and reliability improvements (In reply to jospezial from comment #4) > https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/releases/1.24/#1.24.6 > > Mark, maybe a pull request from you (or whoever can) could bring this faster > into Gentoo. I see that the developer who committed the last gst packages in the portage tree is very, very busy with package updates all over the portage tree so we have to be patient, or commit some serious effort: There are about 80 packages that need to be updated for every gst update. That calls for a script that does the version bumps (otherwise we do this again every 2 months) and an auto test to install all the new packages to verify if they all still install. I assume the maintainers have something like that (everything else would be very tedious and time consuming) and I don't want to reinvent the wheel, especially as developing this is a fulltime job of about a week for writing, testing and documenting the script, an automated testing environment and applying possible fixes to the ebuilds that break, plus review time etc. I could be hired for such a project though, likely next week :-) (In reply to Mark from comment #5) > There are about 80 packages that need to be updated for every gst update ... Somewhere along the way, Gentoo decided that splitting Gstreamer into a bazillion pieces was somehow a good idea. Maybe it is time to rethink that. I have been using media-libs/gstreamer-full-9999.ebuild on my machines for a while now, and it seems to work fairly well. As an added bonus, it is about an order of magnitude faster to compile and install compared to the split-up gstreamer. > (In reply to Mark from comment #5) > I have been using media-libs/gstreamer-full-9999.ebuild on my machines for a > while now, and it seems to work fairly well.

media-libs/gstreamer-full-9999.ebuild
gstreamer-full is from my local overlay. It is a lazy ebuild, and most of the dependencies are automagic, so not suitable for ::gentoo at this time.
The split doesn't really make a difference as far as I'm aware, given it's easy to script. The amount to diff between new versions is the same (huge). That is, the hard part with gst is that while upstream are friendly, each release (and even point releases) often introduce automagic deps or broken build system bits. diffing the build system changes between releases is required for things to be correct for everybody, and that's the time-consuming bit. Then implementing workarounds, patches, and reporting the issues upstream. https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/38635 "media-libs/gstreamer: Bump to 1.24.6, eclass/gstreamer-meson.eclass: Support python 13, media-libs/gst-plugins-bad, media-libs/gst-plugins-base, media-libs/gst-plugins-good, media-libs/gst-plugins-ugly, media-libs/gst-rtsp-server, media-libs/gstreamer-editing-services: Bump to 1.24.6, media-plugins/gst-plugins*: Bump to 1.24.6" GStreamer 1.24.9 stable bug fix release
This release only contains bugfixes and a security fix and it should be safe to update from 1.24.x.
Highlighted bugfixes:
gst-rtsp-server security fix
GstAggregator start time selection and latency query fixes for force-live mode
audioconvert: fix dynamic handling of mix matrix, and accept custom upstream event for setting one
encodebin: fix parser selection for encoders that support multiple codecs
flvmux improvments for pipelines where timestamps don't start at 0
glcontext: egl: Unrestrict the support base DRM formats
kms: Add IMX-DCSS auto-detection in sink and fix stride with planar formats in allocator
macOS main application event loop fixes
mpegtsdemux: Handle PTS/DTS wraparound with ignore-pcr=true
playbin3, decodebin3, parsebin, urisourcebin: fix races, and improve stability and stream-collection handling

ansible playbook to create a bunch of gstreamer and gst-* ebuilds
I wrote an ansible playbook that creates a ton of the gstreamer ebuilds (at least those that I personally use).
The playbook.yml file allows to define any version number and any deployment path (default is /usr/local/portage).
I included a readme file how to use the playbook for those unfamiliar with ansible. Feel free to extend the gstreamer role to include the 10000 other gst-* ebuilds, the readme describes how this works, it is pretty trivial:
copy the current gst-*/foo.ebuild files into the templates directory, remove the version number from the filenames and add a .j2 suffix, then add it to the lists in the tasks/main.yml
I just ran the playbook and updated all the packages. For me the update to 1.24.9 took like 15 minutes now.
Since this bump has been stalled for a long time, can I suggest that the "scripted bump" is performed and then commit the new ebuilds masked? Then interested parties can test and suggest fixes where needed. *** Bug 945387 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Also blocks Bug 928905. ffmpeg-7 support was merged in 1.24.6.
