Hi,
as etch is now released I'll file removal requests for the complete
gstreamer0.8 stack (gstreamer0.8, gst-plugins0.8, gst-python). The
maintainers of the remaining packages that depend on this are notified
to take care of their packages.

These are:

python-matplotlib:
bug #422711, the dependency is unnecessary anyway and should be replaced
by python-gobject instead.

goobox:
bug #410441, not ported to gst0.10 yet and maintainer and upstream don't
have any time to do it.
The sound-juicer package provides the same functionality but uses
gst0.10.


libgstreamer0.8-ruby:
bug #422850, there are gstreamer0.10 bindings for ruby
(ruby-gstreamer0.10) and no package depends on the 0.8 version of them
anymore.

Bye
