Ubuntu LTS build bot uses `jhbuild-minimal.modules` module set. Function `gst_video_format_info_component` is available since GStreamer 1.18. Ubuntu LTS uses GStreamer 1.16 (libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev v1.16.2-4) from system's libraries.

If there is no way to work around this issue, a possible solution might be to add `libgstreamer-plugins-base` as a dependency to the minimal moduleset.
