Hi, ,,,after upgrading Firefox (->3.014) I was remembered to install the Adobe Flash plugin. I first tried to install it via emerge which fails -- Firefox does not "see" the installation (yes, JavaScript was enabled and NoScript instructed accordingly). From the Adobe website I downloaded the newest Flash plugin for Linux in tar.gz. Unpacking the archive only shed daylight on a library -- the installation, which was mentioned by Adobe was missing. So...how can I install Adobe Flashplayer or any other useable alternative?
You emerge it. If it doesn't work, then it's not because it's designed not to work, but because of some problem, obviously. In that case, you might want to file a bug about it (after making sure you tried with a clean firefox profile first).
For reference, my system is AMD64, with www-client/mozilla-firefox-3.5.3-r1, and www-plugins/adobe-flash-10.0.32.18 [64bit multilib -32bit] and it works without problems.
