[OE-core] [PATCH] gst-plugins-package.inc: Allow ${PN}-apps and ${PN}-glib to be empty

[Carlos Rafael Giani]

This can be done already. The first patch (search for "[OE-core] [PATCH 
1/3] gstreamer: fixed -meta package rdepends") can be applied, and does 
not depend on GStreamer 1.0. I bundled it together with the rest since 
the other patches need this one.

cheers
