Means do you configure gst-plugin-base with --with-install-plugins-helper and ship such a helper? That would enable apps such a totem to pull needed codecs on demand (when encoutering such a clip the first time) and on the fly (no restart of the app needed). Its really easy - contact me if you need help. Does this link into the codec install mechanism that gstreamer provides?

You could consider suggesting it to them in <a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/packman" rel="nofollow">#packman</a> or on their mailing list. I updated the ymps again now, so please test and let me know how it goes. eet — the Packman developers should be able to take care of that.

Otherwise YaST package manager will install the highest version number which is the OSS-factory version. Needless to say, these don't support restricted formats. :| Or does the .ymp-format allow to force a certain repository being used for a certain package?
