Description Sudarsana Nagineni (babu) 2013-04-02 02:18:26 PDT
strings returned by gst_element_get_name() and gst_missing_plugin_message_get_installer_detail() must be freed to avoid memory leaks.

Thanks!

BTW I know these leaks are programming errors but perhaps it would be interesting to have a debug EWS bot running valgrind on patches pending-review. What do you think about that?

This is exactly what I have been thinking. I'm going to spend some time trying to setup the leak bot.
