Comment 7 for bug 66621

The problem is solved but in a weird way.

1. sudo apt-get install --reinstall java-gcj-compat-plugin gcjwebplugin-4.1 didn't help. Appearantly no link is ever created in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/

I checked the directory /uer/lib/mozilla/plugins and found a symlink libjavaplugin.so which was pointing to /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so

The link /etc/alternatives/mozilla-javaplugin.so was a broken symlink to my uninstalled sun jvm plugin from multiverse.

So I did 'sudo update-alternatives --config mozilla-javaplugin.so' and selected proper option.

After all this I can see the gcjwebplugin in firefox (about:plugins).

Also /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so points to gcj web plugin. I guess it happened yesterday but I was too busy checking /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
But it looks like it is not being used from anywhere, specifically from /usr/lib/firefox/plugins

So, I think we should remove firefox-javaplugin.so configuration and should only keep mozilla-javaplugin.so
