** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: lernid
  
  If a web page is brought up because a url in the chat (or entered in the
  Event->Open Url dialog) that contains flash, and if the adobe plugin is
  installed, lernid freezes.
  
  To reproduce be sure that the adobe plugin is installed, start lernid,
  Use Event->Open url to open http://youtube.com
  
  Uninstalling adobe flash avoids the freeze, but flash media, of course,
  isn't available.
  
  Installing lightspark allows chrome-browser to use flash, but not the
  browser in lernid, but this flash plugin doesn't seem to hang lernid.
  
  In normal operation last week, lernid ran for a day full of sessions
  only to fail (presumably on this error) in the last 15 minutes.
+ 
+ The problem is that the slides process uses Python threads to download
+ slides files asynchronously, but adobe flash doesn't seem to be
+ compatible with it.
+ 
+ Slides also do not render, due to a poppler call problem.

** Summary changed:
