$ apt-cache policy gstreamer0.8-plugins
gstreamer0.8-plugins:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 0.8.11-0ubuntu5
  Version table:
     0.8.11-0ubuntu5 0

So it's in the universe repository. I think you need to uncomment the
"universe" lines in your /etc/apt/sources.liat.

Incidentally, I haven't used the "plf" sources personally, but I suspect
it might be a good idea to disable them once you have what you need from
them, to avoid unexpected installations when you run an upgrade.
