[Bug 546593] New: To use 32bit flash-player in Firefox needs to install also nspluginwrapper
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=546593 Summary: To use 32bit flash-player in Firefox needs to install also nspluginwrapper Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 8 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Firefox AssignedTo: bnc-team-mozilla@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: D.Povazanec@zoznam.sk QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Opera/9.80 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en) Presto/2.2.15 Version/10.00 I installed standard 32bit flash-player from openSuse 11.2 M8 repository via Yast but Firefox did not recognized installed flash plug-in. Then I found out that also nspluginwrapper need to be installed to enable Firefox to use flash-plug-in. Proposed solution: It could be a good idea to add nspluginwrapper into flash-player install dependency list, so nspluginwrapper is installed automatically. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install openSuse 11.2 M8 x86_64 2.Install flash-player from openSuse 11.2 M8 repository 3.Run Firefox and open web page requiring flash-plug-in Actual Results: Firefox informs that flash plug-in is not installed Expected Results: Run flash contents with installed flash-plug-in -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

From my experience on 11.1, nspluginwrapper was nearly mandatory for daily use on i586 as well, otherwise flash-player killed firefox 10-20 times daily.
Firefox also need to protect against acroread crashes. They are pretty often on tab close. I am not sure, how stable are flash-player and acroread are on 11.2-i586, but it makes sense to build and maybe even supplement both in nspluginwrapper for i586. What do you think about adding "Supplements: acroread flash-player" to both i586 and x86_64 builds? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
