flumotion uses gstreamer0.10 which is to be removed from Debian.
I contacted upstream about their plans to support gstreamer1.0, but they
were
not interested in it.
Furthermore, flumotion depends on gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, which is not
available
in Debian either due to libav/ffmpeg incompatibilities.
(That's the reason why it was not included in jessie).

Finally, the last upstream release has been in 2012, and while their git
repository shows some activity in 2014, this has mainly been concerned about
cosmetic issues (adding empty lines to conform with PEP8).
So development seems to be pretty dead.

I thus suggest that this package be removed.
