My best suggestion is to pull the source package from the debian archives and build it from there. It shouldn't be too much trouble to do so. - -- |The mark of your ignorance is the depth of Scott K.

Netscape plugins don't work
Sorry if this is a FAQ, but I haven't seen it yet in this news group. It seems that starting with v 4 of Netscape, the plugins no longer work. For example, when clicking a .pdf file, the script will no load up acroread, or a .ram will not load up realaudio. I must fall back to version 3.01 in order for this to work. I am currently using the v 4.02b7. A dialog box appears with an error message sh: -c: line 1: missing closing ')' for arithmetic expression sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token ';' sh: -c: line 1: '((acroread file.pdf);rm file.pdf)' I suspect the wrong shell is loaded, but I haven't a clue how to correct the problem.
