Is npapi-sdk a Debian-specific thing, or is it something other distributions will use as well soon? I also wonder if patching all downstream projects is the right way to solve this issue, but I don't know much about NPAPI (if 0.27 is the real API version number, then patching them is the right thing to do - otherwise for real compatibility with stuff that depended on mozilla-plugin, having a higher version number there would help) Cheers, Matthias
