Glad you fixed it. Yes, it's probably a problem in the Autotools
instructions, perhaps two problems. One that GStreamer's `make
uninstall` target doesn't remove everything, and one in the
GI/Autotools integration. Autotools is a pretty hairy codebase, so
while a fix would be welcome, make sure you don't get eaten by dragons
along th way :-)

GStreamer have now added Meson build instructions, but sadly they
can't really enabled by default in jhbuild yet:
