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 INFO: Processing /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins -> /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped INFO: Wrapping /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped/nswrapper_64_64.libjavaplugin.so... *** NSPlugin Viewer *** ERROR: libxpcom.so: cannot open shared object file: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ No such file or directory INFO: Linking /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so to /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins-wrapped/libjavaplugin.so... WARNING: Failed. <==!!!! INFO: Processing /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins -> /usr/lib64/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
libjavaplugin.so is not NPAPI plugin and is not wrapped by nspluginwrapper. But the error message should not be here.
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.
