>Description:
Installation of gstreamer-plugins-0.8.1_1 causes the port to fail with
the following message:
ERROR:
===>  Applying FreeBSD patches for gstreamer-plugins-0.8.1_1
File to patch: 
No file found--skip this patch? [n] y
1 out of 1 hunks ignored--saving rejects to
gst-libs/ext/ffmpeg/ffmpeg/libavcodec/alpha/simple
_idct_alpha.c.rej
Can't create
gst-libs/ext/ffmpeg/ffmpeg/libavcodec/alpha/simple_idct_alpha.c.rej,
output is in
 /tmp//patchrIOw1Ve: No such file or directory

The port fails because the file simple_idct_alpha.c no longer exists.
Using find . -type f -name "simple_idct_alpha.c", in the work directory
shows that it is not there.

>How-To-Repeat:
cd into multimedia/gstreamer-plugins
type make the compilation cannot proceed because the patch:
patch-gst-libs_ext_ffmpeg_ffmpeg_libavcodec_alpha_simple_i cannot be
applied to the non-existent simple_idct_alpha.c file. 

>Fix:

Remove the patch 
patch-gst-libs_ext_ffmpeg_ffmpeg_libavcodec_alpha_simple_i
from /usr/ports/multimedia/gstreamer-plugins/files/

NOTE: after making this change, I ran portlint -Av and tested the port
using the prescription in sect. 2.4 of the Porters Handbook. It failed
at step 2 and step 4. Namely I had to make deinstall to build the
package. This may be a minor problem. Portlint only discovered 2 minor
warnings.
