Hi Guys,
Thanks/congratulations for Karmic realese to Ubuntu Dev team.

Empathy, exaile is not starting up. Looks like issue is related to gstreamer versions.

I tried reinstalling empathy, gstreamer packages including plugins.
But nothing is working. Please let me know if you any pointers.

Thanks,

Reinstalling whole gstreamer packages solved issue.

sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-base gstreamer0.10-plugins-base-apps gstreamer0.10-plugins-good gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
