[Bug 1661371] Re: [zesty] doesn't offer a window to install missing gstreamer codecs

[Pojar Gheorghe–Ioan]

** Description changed:

- Install missing gstreamer codecs on totem and rhythmox not work because
- zesty doesn't show up a window for install handler.
+ Attempting to play a mp3 file with Rhythmbox on the latest Zesty daily
+ build
+ 
+ Rhythmbox opens but no playback start.
+ On the terminal I got this:
+ 
+ Rhythmbox-Message: Missing plugin: gstreamer|1.0|rhythmbox-metadata|MPEG-1 Layer 3 (MP3) decoder|decoder-audio/mpeg, mpegversion=(int)1, mpegaudioversion=(int)1, layer=(int)3
+ /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sessioninstaller/core.py:47: PyGIWarning: Gst was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gst', '1.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
+   from gi.repository import Gst
+ /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sessioninstaller/core.py:48: PyGIWarning: Gtk was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
+   from gi.repository import Gtk
+ Falling back to package information
+ Rhythmbox-Message: Missing plugins installed. Updating plugin registry ...
+ 
+ But the wizard to install the missing codec actually fails to launch.
