I don't have this. That directory contains:
libnullplugin.so* mplayerplug-in-qt.so@ mplayerplug-in.so@ mplayerplug-in-gmp.so@ mplayerplug-in-rm.so@ mplayerplug-in-wmp.so@
Seems to me I've probably only got one active 'global' (system wide) Firefox installation with others that have been superceded but not removed. Maybe you've got something similar going on? The *lazy* way I've dealt with this ;-) is to just hunt down every 'Firefox' installation and make sure each */lib/plugins directory I find contains the identical set of symlinks pointing to the plug-ins installed under /usr/lib/browser-plug-ins Example: (as root) cd /opt/mozilla/lib/plugins ln -s /usr/lib/browser-plugins/nppdf.so nppdf.so Then comes an important final step which is truly a legacy mozilla quirk: -> *whenever* you add/update/remove a plug-in from 'mozilla' or the various flavors, you need to find... somewhere under your user config directory (e.g. ~/.mozilla/*) a file called "pluginreg.dat". Make sure 'mozilla flavor' is closed completely and then delete this pluginreg.dat file. The next time 'mozilla flavor' loads it will re-register all the plug-ins it finds. Try this and see if it works. regards, Carl
