I forced a re-install and all seems to be working, but I get an SELinux
alert that tells me it is
blocking /usr/lib64/gstreamer-0.10/libgstffmpeg.so because it requires
text location.

I went ahead an used audit2allow to make an exception for this shared
library.  Not exactly what I wanted to do and I'm hoping that this gets
fixed in the upstream work.
