      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      Version mismatches between the emacs, gstreamer1, and gstreamer1-plugins-base packages cause emacs to fail to start due to library symbol lookup errors. None of the emacs packages have a hard version dependency defined for either the gstreamer1 or gstreamer1-plugins-base packages.

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      27.2-9.el9.x86_64 with gstreamer1-plugins-base-1.18.4-5.el9.x86_64 and gstreamer1-1.18.4-4.el9.x86_64

      How reproducible: 100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1. Install version 27.2-9.el9.x86_64 of the emacs, emacs-common, and emacs-filesystem packages.
      2. Ensure gstreamer1 and gstreamer1-plugins-base are the versions mentioned above.
      3. Start emacs from the command line.

      Expected results

      Emacs starts normally.

      Actual results

      • emacs fails to start with error "emacs: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37: undefined symbol: gst_audio_format_info_fill_silence".
      • After updating gstreamer1-plugins-base package to version 1.22.1-1.el9.x86_64 and restarting emacs, error changes to "emacs: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libgstvideo-1.0.so.0: undefined symbol: _gst_meta_tag_memory_reference".
      • Updatng gstreamer1 package to 1.22.1-2.el9.x86_64 allows emacs to start normally.
