Description of problem: The "Java" plugin does not get picked up by web browsers ("epiphany") because no symbolic link from "/usr/lib/gcj-4.1.1/libgcjwebplugin.so" to "/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins" exists. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libgcj-4.1.1-20 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch "epiphany". 2. Go to a "Java" animated web page. Actual results: The "Java" plugin is reported to be missing. Expected results: The "Java" applet should be executed by the plugin. Additional info: After creating the symbolic link mentioned above, "Java" functionality is recovered. Until some days ago, "java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-plugin" ensured the creation of the missing link but has been dropped since then. Maybe creating this link should go now into the post-install section of "libgcj"?
