You mean you want downgrade your gstreamer installed software...?

gstreamer0.10-x to gstreamer0.8-*

Thank you

Hello..
You have to downgrade a package:

downgrading a package..
Just replace your existing os repository to an older one
For ex: gutsy to edgy:
gutsy rdesktop 1.5.0.2 to edgy rdesktop 1.41
Just add the edgy repos to your sources.list:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main restricted
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main restricted

Then do a

sudo aptitude update

Then do a

sudo aptitude remove rdesktop

here rdesktop 1.5 is replaced by rdesktop 1.41

Hope the above example helps.....:)

To get Totem to work correctly, I was giving a list of packages to install. Some of the packages were gstreamer0.10* and some of the packages were gstreamer0.8*. The gstreamer0.8* packages do not appear in my Synaptic Package Manager. What do I do?

Please tell us What are you trying to play in totem?
