I am trying to build gstreamer for IMX53 Evk board. I downloaded Yocto from http://freescale.github.io/#download and run the following commands.
#MACHINE=imx53qsb
#source setup-environment build
#bitbake core-image-minimal
It built the u-boot, kernel and filesystem. The file system doesn't have gstreamer. I want to built gstreamer also.
As per my understanding there two approaches to built gstreamer now.
Approach 1. Modify the distro.conf file to build gstreamer also. I am not sure how to add gstreamer entries in the distro.conf. The distribution is poky distribution.
Approach 2. Add IMAGE_INSTALL_append with gstreamer entries. My doubht here is what names we have to add in the IMAGE_INSTALL_append.
I could see the following bb files related to gstreamer. Can you please help what strings I have to add in IMAGE_INSTALL_append in local.conf.

You may add just
IMAGE_INSTALL_append += "gstreamer"
Long answer is that you should add the package name that usually stored in PN recipe variable. You may read about PN variable here. Package names may also be managed with PACKAGES variable.
