configure output complains that gstreamer is not installed, however gstreamer-0.6 was actually installed as part of the merge because the command-line USE flag included "gstreamer" in it. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: USE="gstreamer doc" emerge -vu kdemultimedia Actual Results: <snip-from-configure-output> ************************************************** * * You do not seem to have GStreamer and the * KDE GStreamer bindings installed.

In other words, if the kdenonbeta/gst module is not part of this build, or a prerequisite when USE="gstreamer" is enabled, then it should be. (See Actual Results mentioning "kdenonbeta/gst")
I ran into this same problem. Is there release version of the gst bindings for kde or should we just use a snapshot of kdenonbeta/gst and provide an ebuild for it?
There are snapshots at http://developer.kde.org/~wheeler/files/src/ but until we have an ebuild for those kde bindings for gstreamer, the dependency should be removed...
There is an ebuild for the snapshot in bugzilla. bug 43417
kde-3.4 will have proper support for gstreamer-0.8, and will not need the kde bindings. So I'm closing this one now.
