[Sugar-devel] porting Gstreamer Activities to PYGobject and Gstreamer 1.0

[Daniel Narvaez]

Hello,

I added Gstreamer 1.0 to sugar-build. I tested with a sample video
player and it seems to work fine, no additional script is required.

If you are using a plugin which is not built, please let me know and
I'll add the required system dependencies.
