Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
This is a wishlist for Apport.
Currently when reporting a bug report against Firefox using Apport, details of the enabled extensions are attached to the resulting bug report as a text file. This should be extended to details of the currently installed plugins (ie, Flash, Java, Acroread etc). As a triager, one of the first things that is frequently asked when looking at a Firefox bug report is "which Flash plugin are you using"? (bug 253603 being a perfect example). This information should already be attached to the bug report.
