From https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/2288

GStreamer Multimedia Codes should not have same names. This is confusing in gnome-software.

GNOME Software update page showing duplicate entries ( entries with same label ):

gstreamer-same-names-not-duplicates

Actual entries ( which are different codec packages ):

1
2
3

Should we set component name by doing string processing on these names -or- is there a better solution ?
