You can see we have gstreamer-ffmpeg, because it's a offical name. As for the 'gst' isn't clear when you search in the google, freshports and etc. The 'gstreamer' is a real name. Fedora[1] and Gentoo packages have 'gstreamer-*'.

If you do, then I kind of agree. Easier for us to search it. > (c) decided not to use versioning for 0.10, which will > probably result in massive repocopies when the next > version comes out. That one is what I would like to see change. We should have gstreamer010-[...]. It's too late for now, we should be hold and wait until next major version of gstreamer. I think, the next major release should have gstreamer-* then repocopy gstreamer-* to gstreamer010-* and delete gstreamer-*.
