Description Andrew Jorgensen 2007-11-07 18:06:02 UTC

installing the flash-player package doesn't give you flash until you configure the plugin wrapper manually.  This should be done automatically in a post-install script or something.

Comment 1 Wolfgang Rosenauer 2007-11-07 21:54:27 UTC

Maybe a %triggerin or alike.
Reassigning to tentative nspluginwrapper maintainer.

Comment 2 Stanislav Brabec 2007-11-08 12:38:47 UTC

It's already implemented:

%triggerin -- RealPlayer acroread acroread_ja flash-player mplayerplug-in
%{_bindir}/%{name} -a -u || :

But it may not work properly - most probably duplicate of bug 304963.

Please see bug 304963 comment 22. Does it help for you?

Comment 3 Andrew Jorgensen 2007-11-08 17:48:30 UTC

Re bug 304963: I didn't see any error messages, it just didn't work.  And I don't have dragonegg installed so I don't think this is a duplicate in that sense.  As for comment 22, I don't need any help, I fixed it already.

If it is implemented it appears to have not worked.

Any other info needed?

Comment 4 Andrew Jorgensen 2007-11-08 22:15:14 UTC

Sorry, didn't know about this checkbox to remove the needinfo status.

Comment 5 Stanislav Brabec 2007-11-21 17:13:27 UTC

What do you mean with "configure the plugin wrapper manually"?

What will happen, if you run following command as root:
/usr/bin/nspluginwrapper -a -i

And yes, it does not work in some circumstances (e. g. presence of dragonegg), but it is a problem of glibc (bug 304963).

Possible error message could appear in y2log (from time of installation). Could you provide it?

Comment 6 Cristian Rodriguez 2007-12-23 18:22:05 UTC

seeing this one in all new installs I have performed, reproducible all the time.

Comment 7 Stanislav Brabec 2008-01-07 15:16:09 UTC

Could you please provide information from comment 5 to determine, whether this problem is a duplicate of bug 304963 or not?

Comment 8 Andrew Jorgensen 2008-01-07 16:35:40 UTC

Sorry, I went back to 32-bit out of frustration with another bug.  Am not able to provide this info.

Comment 9 Stanislav Brabec 2008-01-08 16:01:07 UTC

Most probably diplicate either of bug 350752 or bug 304963. Not having more information, guessing from the initial comment as bug 304963.
