Don't know if this will help, but here is what I have:
File: libflashplayer.so
Path: /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
Version: 11.2.202.359
State: Disabled
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202
file /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared
object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, stripped
$ md5sum libflashplayer.so
740eba4ef353eb04aa40e2b07e886b63 libflashplayer.so
If I do not use the one in /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so,
then I put it in ~/.mozilla/plugins instead. That generally works for me
- not sure why it doesn't work for you.
Testing: I just cp'ed libflashplayer.so to ~/.mozilla/plugins & then
renamed the version in /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin to
libflashplayer.so_back and (with restarting SeaMonkey) checked to see if
SM picks it up - it does:
Shockwave Flash
File: libflashplayer.so
Path: /home/<username>/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
Version: 11.2.202.359
State: Enabled
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202
Firefox 29 picks it up from the ~/.mozilla/plugins also. You might want
to check that you have a valid libflashplayer.so in that location & not
a symlink instead.
Tested both here:
<http://www.adobe.com/eeurope/software/flash/about/>
You have version 11,2,202,359 installed
