Package: cheese
Version: 3.16.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #791941

I have the same problem: I get the message:

----------

  (gst-plugin-scanner:5483): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing
type 'ClutterGstVideoSink'

  (gst-plugin-scanner:5483): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **:
g_type_add_interface_static: assertion 'G_TYPE_IS_INSTANTIATABLE
(instance_type)' failed

  (gst-plugin-scanner:5483): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion
'result != 0' failed

  (gst-plugin-scanner:5483): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_element_register:
assertion 'g_type_is_a (type, GST_TYPE_ELEMENT)' failed
  ** Message: cheese-application.vala:211: Error during camera setup: One or
more needed GStreamer elements are missing: cluttervideosink.

------------

and then cheese starts with a black screen that spells the last part of the
message
