I've just had a look at FireFox about:plugins and I'm both worried and |
| 2 |
confused. |
| 3 |
No surprise there; it happens a lot when I peek under the covers. :o) |

There are two versions of the Java plugin listed, with the same |
| 6 |
libjavaplugin_oji.so |
| 7 |
filename. The latest is Java 1.5.0_04b05. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
There are two versions of Flash listed, also with one and the same filename: |
| 10 |
libflashplayer.so. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
The crux: are there really two versions installed? Should I clean this up? |
| 13 |
If so, |
| 14 |
how? Is this a Gentoo portage artifact, or does this happen in other distros |
| 15 |
as well? |

Also: I would like the Adobe Acrobat plugin, but |
| 20 |
1) I don't see it in 'eix' or 'emerge -s'. |
| 21 |
2) The instructions for installing from an existing Acrobat install are not |
| 22 |
effective |
| 23 |
with the portage-installed acrobat. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Should I make a separate version from the Acrobat tarball? |
