Thank you all:

I just noticed the difference when "pkg_add -ivu" ran into problems - GStreamer plugins couldn't "resolve each other" (for brevity's sake - pardon the lack of details) and displayed a repetitive stream of announcements saying so.

Attempting to delete one plugin forced me to delete all reliant (GS plugins and swfdec) pkgs. Doing so and reinstalling them worked.

While reading the "4.6 Package List" and its description pages, it seemed as if the separation of several "bad" and "ugly" plugin components were the "new way" of working on them. That's all.

Again, thanks!
