## Description

Use the GST_PLUGINS_BASE_VERSION_* macros e.g. to check what version of gst-plugins-base you are building against, and `gst_plugins_base_version()` if you need to check at runtime what version of the gst-plugins-base libraries are being used / you are currently linked against.

The version macros get defined by including <gst/pbutils/pbutils.h>.
