i believe this is fixed in gst-plugins 0.8.11, can you confirm?
Same here in 0.8.11

Same behavior here. Just came across this bug while emergeing gst-plugins-0.8.11. Seems that it got forgotten for a while... Is there any intention on fixing this or should it be "cured" by disabling tests? Suggestion: Rename bug to 'media-libs/gst-plugins: build loops on a recursive director structure during test' I can post my emerge --info if needed, but I think there is already enough information posted. BR, Dustin
Can you reproduce this w/ 0.8.12?
