Package: totem
Version: 43.0-2
Severity: serious


After installing Bookworm on my computer (kept my home from Bullseye), I can't
start any video/audio file using Gnome Video.

The program displays the following error message and dies when clicking OK.

                            Video cloud not startup
Some necessary plug-ins are missing. Make sure that the program is correctly
installed.

                                       OK

On the console it logs:

** (totem:1676241): WARNING **: 23:38:30.454: Element 'gtkglsink' is missing,
verify your installation

** (totem:1676241): WARNING **: 23:38:30.454: Element 'glsinkbin' is missing,
verify your installation

Other players work fine.
