When installing totem i get the attached error claiming that configure cannot find the gconfaudiosink plugin causing the install to die. Configure suggests checking that gst-plugins-good is installed which it is, aswell as gst-plugins-gconf. Running gst-inspect also seems to report that the required plugin is there: # gst-inspect-0.10 | grep gconf gconfelements: gconfvideosink: GConf video sink gconfelements: gconfvideosrc: GConf video source gconfelements: gconfaudiosink: GConf audio sink gconfelements: gconfaudiosrc: GConf audio source For reference my emerge --info output is: Portage 2.2_rc20 (default/linux/amd64/2008.0/desktop, gcc-4.3.2, glibc-2.9_p20081201-r1, 2.6.27.10-std114-amd64 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: Linux-2.6.27.10-std114-amd64-x86_64-Intel-R-_Core-TM-2_Quad_CPU_@_2.40GHz-with-glibc2.2.5 Timestamp of tree: Sun, 04 Jan 2009 19:45:01 +0000 app-shells/bash: 3.2_p48 dev-java/java-config: 1.3.7-r1, 2.1.6-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.5.2-r8 dev-util/cmake: 2.6.2-r1 sys-apps/baselayout: 2.0.0 sys-apps/openrc: 0.4.1-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.3.2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.63 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.7.9-r1, 1.9.6-r2, 1.10.2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.19 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.4.0-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 2.2.6a virtual/os-headers: 2.6.28-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/ca-certificates.conf /etc/env.d /etc/env.d/java/ /etc/fonts/fonts.conf /etc/gconf /etc/gentoo-release /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/sandbox.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/udev/rules.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="distlocks fixpackages metadata-transfer parallel-fetch preserve-libs protect-owned sandbox sfperms strict unmerge-orphans userfetch" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.virginmedia.com http://distfiles.gentoo.org" LANG="en_GB.UTF-8" LC_ALL="en_GB.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,-s -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,-znow" LINGUAS="en en_gb" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --stats --timeout=180 --exclude=/distfiles --exclude=/local --exclude=/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays/desktop-effects /usr/local/overlays/oss-overlay /usr/local/overlays/sunrise /usr/local/overlays/THE /usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X a52 aac acl acpi amazon amd64 applet automount avahi bash-completion berkdb bluetooth branding bzip2 cairo cdaudio cddb cdio cdparanoia cdr chm cleartype cli cracklib crypt css cups curl dbus disk-partition divx djvu dri dvd dvdr dvdread ebook eds emboss encode esd evo exif fam fbcondecor fbsplash ffmpeg firefox flac fortran fuse g15 galago gdbm gedit gif git glitz gnome gnomecd gphoto2 gpm groupwise gstreamer gtk hal iconv id3tag inotify ipv6 java jpeg lame ldap libnotify libsexy logrotate lzma lzo mad matroska mdnsresponder-compat messenger midi mikmod mmx mmxext mng mono mozilla mp3 mp3tunes mp4 mp4live mpeg mpeg2 mplayer mplayer-bin mudflap multilib musicbrainz nautilus ncurses network nls nptl nptlonly nsplugin ntfs nvidia ogg ogm opengl openmp oss pam pcre pdf perl png ppds python quicktime rar rdesktop readline realmedia reflection samba sdl semantic-desktop session smp spell spl sqlite sse sse2 ssl ssse3 startup-notification subversion svg sysfs syslog tcpd threads tiff truetype unicode unzip upnp usb visualization vnc vorbis wma wmf wmp x264 xcb xine xml xorg xosd xpm xscreensaver xulrunner xv xvid xvmc zeroconf zip zlib" ALSA_CARDS="ali5451 als4000 atiixp atiixp-modem bt87x ca0106 cmipci emu10k1x ens1370 ens1371 es1938 es1968 fm801 hda-intel intel8x0 intel8x0m maestro3 trident usb-audio via82xx via82xx-modem ymfpci" ALSA_PCM_PLUGINS="adpcm alaw asym copy dmix dshare dsnoop empty extplug file hooks iec958 ioplug ladspa lfloat linear meter mmap_emul mulaw multi null plug rate route share shm softvol" APACHE2_MODULES="actions alias auth_basic authn_alias authn_anon authn_dbm authn_default authn_file authz_dbm authz_default authz_groupfile authz_host authz_owner authz_user autoindex cache dav dav_fs dav_lock deflate dir disk_cache env expires ext_filter file_cache filter headers include info log_config logio mem_cache mime mime_magic negotiation rewrite setenvif speling status unique_id userdir usertrack vhost_alias" ELIBC="glibc" INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse" KERNEL="linux" LCD_DEVICES="bayrad cfontz cfontz633 glk hd44780 lb216 lcdm001 mtxorb ncurses text" LINGUAS="en en_gb" USERLAND="GNU" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia vesa" Unset: CPPFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, FFLAGS, INSTALL_MASK, PORTAGE_COMPRESS, PORTAGE_COMPRESS_FLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS

On further testing it seems this only showed up in my initial install chroot. Trying again when booted into my new install worked fine and i cant reproduce it by chrooting into the install from a livecd.
Marking resolved+invalid - please feel free to reopen if you hit this bug again.
Hi, I ran into the exact same thing while trying to install gnome on a server that so far didn't run X.

(In reply to comment #5) Errm, the problem mysteriously disappeared after rebooting the server. I think there's something wrong with the configure script and/or the environment while doing a fresh gnome install. Anyway, for my case the problem is solved. ;-)
