Description Michal Jaegermann 2007-10-24 20:43:18 UTC
Description of problem:

A test run (here on x86_64) of 'mozilla-plugin-config  -g -v -i'
gets the following:

INFO: /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npviewer isn't accessible.
INFO: /usr/lib64/nspluginwrapper/npviewer looks ok.
WARNING: I can't search dir /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins-wrapped

This is not so surprising as libxpcom.so is one of firefox libraries
and nothing at the above seems to search for libraries there.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nspluginwrapper-0.9.91.5-8.fc8

How reproducible:
always

Comment 1 Martin Stransky 2007-10-29 08:54:27 UTC
libjavaplugin.so is not NPAPI plugin and is not wrapped by nspluginwrapper. But
the error message should not be here.

Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2007-12-06 12:21:27 UTC
libjavaplugin.so is linked with xpcom but nspluginwrapper doesn't support it on
Fedora 8 (I don't know about any NPAPI plugin what uses xpcom and runs with the
wrapper). 

But it's not an issue here - libjavaplugin.so is not a NPAPI plugin and can't be
wrapped by nspluginwrapper, even if it's linked with the xpcom.

closing as a NOTABUG.
