Bug Description
Binary package hint: kaffeine-mozilla
Summary: Installed kaffeine-mozilla package in order to use the kaffeine starter plugin and it does not show up in Firefox 3. Have to make a symbolic link in order to make it work
Environment:
Kubuntu 8.04.1 64-bit
Firefox nobinonly-
Kaffeine 0.8.6-0ubuntu8.1
kaffeine-mozilla 0.4.3.1.dfsg-0.1
Steps
1. Install kaffeine-mozilla
2. Uninstall any other media mozilla plugins
3. Run Firefox and attempt to play embedded media content
Expected Results: The kaffeine-mozilla plugin should load kaffeine and the media should run in kaffeine
Actual Results: It doesn't show up. Firefox gives the message stating that the there are no plugins to display this file type. about:plugins confirms that the kaffeine plugin does not show up.
Observing the package details in adept shows that the plugin is installed in /usr/lib/mozilla/* On another machine the totem-mozilla package details were observed and it shows that the plugin is installed in /usr/lib/
The workaround that seems to work for me for the time being is to make a symbolic link in /usr/lib/
