Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu Server 12.10 (no desktop, headless)  together with
rygel updates ppa ppa:yg-jensge/gupnp. (Same thing happens with gupnp-
unstable ppa)

I installed rygel and adapted rygel.conf to my needs. Basically I enabled the 
MediaExport plugin with extract-metadata=true.
I can see the server library on my Android phone using Bubblepnp and also 
playing music works. All seems to be working.

BUT: in the library under "Music" I only have an "ALL" folder listing
all filenames, all with "Unknown Artist". I'm pretty sure that at least
some of my mp3 have some metadata, but nothing seems to get extracted
and therefore nothing is in the library under Artist/Genre etc.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 together with the same rygel on my notebook and
it works fine with metadata. But here I'm using Gnome etc. What I
suspect is that some dependencies for metadata extraction during rygel
install on the Ubuntu Server are not installed.

(Rygel was also the first "audio" tool I installed on a fresh Ubuntu
12.10 Server install. So there was no Alsa nor gstreamer stuff installed
beforehand. Only what rygel installed as its own dependencies).  On my
Ubuntu Server there is no Desktop installed as I'm using it headless.

So what is necessary for MediaExport plugin to extract metadata (from
mp3)? I didn't install tracker (and rygel-tracker) as it installs some
X11 and gnome stuff. I think MediaExport uses other tools to get the
metadata..

Thank you for your help!
