Can you please tell me how can I resolve these dependencies on ubuntu:

checking for GSTREAMER... configure: error: Package requirements (gstreamer-0.10 >= 0.10
                     gstreamer-app-0.10
                     gstreamer-base-0.10
                     gstreamer-pbutils-0.10
                     gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.25
                     gstreamer-video-0.10) were not met:

No package 'gstreamer-app-0.10' found
No package 'gstreamer-pbutils-0.10' found
No package 'gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10' found
No package 'gstreamer-video-0.10' found

I have tried:

$ sudo apt-get install *gstreamer-video*

$ apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev

which you could have found by doing a search for gstreamer-app-0.10.pc in package contents on packages.ubuntu.com or with apt-file search, or by running the whole configuration process within auto-apt run.

I have tried that '$ apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev'

But it now said:

Requested 'gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.25' but version of GStreamer Base Plugins Libraries is 0.10.18
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GSTREAMER_CFLAGS
and GSTREAMER_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

So download and 'make install' gstreamer in /home/michael/bin (./configure --prefix-/home/michael/bin).

And the I have set

$ echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
/home/novarra/bin/lib/pkgconfig
$ echo $GSTREAMER_LIBS
/home/scheung/bin/lib/pkconfig

And rerun ./autogen.sh --enable-debug

I set get the same 'Requested 'gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10 >= 0.10.25' but version of GStreamer Base Plugins Libraries is 0.10.18'

libgstreamer0.10-dev doesnt seems to work in Ubuntu 18/19 but I tried the 1.0 version like this:

sudo apt install -y libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev

Just in case anyone needs to know
