Description (last modified by Christopher Allan Webber)

See #5024... it would be nice, if gstreamer 1.0 is not installed, if we could give a friendlier failure message.

Ideas on what we should catch, and how to raise the error? Even raising an exception with better text would likely work.

Marking as "small", since just raising an unhandled exception with a helpful message would be a big help to the site owner.
