 * SECTION:gstpbutilsmissingplugins
 * @title: Missing plugins
 * @short_description: Create, recognise and parse missing-plugins messages
 *
 * Functions to create, recognise and parse missing-plugins messages for
 * applications and elements.
 *
 * Missing-plugin messages are posted on the bus by elements like decodebin
 * or playbin if they can't find an appropriate source element or decoder
 * element. The application can use these messages for two things:
 *
 *   * concise error/problem reporting to the user mentioning what exactly
 *     is missing, see gst_missing_plugin_message_get_description()
 *
 *   * initiate installation of missing plugins, see
 *     gst_missing_plugin_message_get_installer_detail() and
 *     gst_install_plugins_async()
 *
 * Applications may also create missing-plugin messages themselves to install
 * required elements that are missing, using the install mechanism mentioned
 * above.
 *
