please change the SRC_URI to a more generic one from http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/n/nspluginwrapper - that way not too much load shut put on that particular server
the gcc44 patch is taken from: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269250 (nspluginwrappes-1.3.0-systemlibs.diff)
almost all other distributions are using it instead of 1.2.2 so it can't be that bad

nice !
now (with the in-tree nspluginwrapper) there's no problem with clicking on flash-elements anymore (e.g. selecting higher quality videos on youtube)  |
But at least for me, right-clicking will crash the Flash-Plugin

hrm. I just updated both chromium and nspluginwrapper to their current ~amd64 versions, and now flash plugins (say, on youtube) just show a "missing plugin" error, and chromium opens a download dialog for the flash content.
Any suggestions as to what's going wrong? Do I need to re-symlink the plugin into chromium's plugins directory?
Thanks,
EE |

Yep, you need to issue the following:
| Code: | | # nspluginwrapper -i /opt/netscape/plugins32/libflashplayer.so |

I spoke too soon: now none of the flash objects are interactable. That is, I can't actually play all those YouTube videos (embedded or not). I can push buttons on the widget, but no content is downloaded. It's also not just YouTube: videos from Vimeo do the same thing.
So, is it the recently-upadated version of flash? I'll downgrade and let you know.
Thanks,
EE
EDIT: downgraded to 10.0.45.2-r1. Now pages containing flash objects won't even load. I'll try upgrading back, and see what happens.
EDIT²: yup, soon as I re-upgraded to 10.1, flash objects load fine, but aren't interactable. Suggestions? |

not really:
when I used my own ebuild (see above) I could play videos but couldn't set higher quality, etc. etc.
I un-emerged it and re-installed the in-tree one after that magically everything now works fine
except the obligatory right-click *stunt* on adobe's flash info-site - but I don't need that kind of gimmick anyways
even selecting higher-quality videos, a server in speedtest.net and changing the flash-settings work now

hmph. Well, I demerged both nspluginwrapper and adobe-flash, remerged them, and restarted chromium (did I mention I'm running the latest build of chromium?). Same problem. I also get the same problem using firefox.
OOooo! But! Apparently, I do not have this problem using opera.
So, what is different about how opera handles flash plugins that makes it work fine when both firefox and chromium fail?
Thanks,

All right. Then apparently, on my build at least, the nspluginwrapper/adobe-flash packages don't work properly. How should I go about debugging this, so I can post a useful bug report? I get nothing in the terminal when I try to play an embedded video, but I do get the following on startup:
| Code: | [5912:5926:93992729312:ERROR:base/native_library_linux.cc(24)] dlopen failed when trying to open /usr/lib64/nsbrowser/plugins/libnullplugin.so: libmozalloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

that doesn't seem to be the cause since I also don't have that file in that directory either - maybe making a symbolic link helps ?
that libnullplugin.so is in the following locations for me:
| locate libnullplugin wrote: |
/opt/songbird/xulrunner/plugins/libnullplugin.so
/opt/xulrunner/plugins/libnullplugin.so
/usr/lib64/xulrunner-1.9.2/plugins/libnullplugin.so

I see the same here (went to in-tree build last night, see it on both), seems innocuous though.
Apparently the order in which you merge them is key, so sayeth the ebuild. I moved from old flash to new on my laptop, seems if you merge flash first, then merge nspluginwrapper, it does it all on its own.
...and really all I can say there is "works for me", looking at about:plugins in Chromium has
| Code: |
File name: npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
Shockwave Flash 10.1 r53

I show that line in my plugins listing as well, and I agree: those error lines are probably inconsequential.
The problem isn't that the plugin isn't there: rather, it's that the plugin is not executing any commands. The video player, for example, is perfectly visible (just nonresponsive in terms of content). For example, I also can't switch to the large-window format on youtube, go fullscreen, scroll (well, I can reposition the slider, but it doesn't have any effect), etc.
I demerged both the wrapper and the player, and then remerged them in that order: it didn't seem to help.
I've had this problem before, and the only solution came with a new version of either the wrapper or the player (I can't remember which). Since that usually lasts a few weeks, I really wish I could figure out what's going wrong, and fix it. Should I just go ahead and file a bug report, and see what the devs can make of it?
Thanks,

greetingz .. i have the same problem .. and no idea for solution .. except to wait for a newer version of flash .. ..
www-client/chromium-6.0.437.3
www-plugins/nspluginwrapper-1.3.0
www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.1.53.64
net-libs/webkit-gtk-1.2.1 (uzbl)
tried with chromium, firefox 3.6,3.7, webkit and no luck ..
Luckily, html5 is working fine so i`m not panicking, but if anyone gets an idea how to solve this .. shout out .. ..
Cheers ..

I didn't get HTML5 working - neither in Firefox nor in Opera.
In Firefox the alsa dependency was hardcoded. In the meantime the dropped that dependency. But not alsa no html5 videos.
Opera is setting on gstreamer. That's installed. But for some reason it didn't work too. For youtube there's a better alternative.

It's using mplayer and doesn't need any browser. |

well, maybe not of much help, but i solved the problem i couple of steps:
| Code: |
emerge -C nspluginwrapper adobe-flash
rm -rf ~/.adobe && rm -rf ~/.macromedia && rm -rf ~/.mozilla/plugins
echo www-plugins/adobe-flash >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge "=www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.0.45.2-r1"
echo www-plugins/adobe-flash >> /etc/portage/package.mask
|
works like a charm .. ..
Cheers ..

nope. I did that, and chromium behaves thus:
pages with flash object take forever to load, or not at all. When they do, the plugin is missing. On Opera, the browser crashes.
So, downgrading to and forcing use of that version of adobe-flash does not work for me.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
