Bug Description
Swfdec 0.8.2 fixes a lot of memory issues (leaks, crashes) that are found in 0.8.0 (the version currently found in Intrepid).
As compared to the version in Hardy (0.6.4), it adds support for PulseAudio, kind of a necessity since Hardy uses PulseAudio. I have personally backported 0.8.2 in pbuilder for my Hardy amd64 system, and I can confirm that it works very well.

We need to backport the swfdec source package and the swfdec-mozilla source package. Both build fine and work fine here, on an Intrepid system. swfdec-gnome which is the only other application to depend on swfdec still works fine.
Packages are available in my PPA if someone wants to give them a try : https:/ /launchpad. net/~jerome- guelfucci/ +archive
