Description akruijff 2004-03-05 16:50:15 UTC 
The Flash setup in Mozilla is lost when updating Mozilla because the make install process override /usr/X11R6/bin/mozilla

Fix: 

If the file /usr/X11R6/mozilla doesn't exist then create it.
If the file /usr/X11R6/mozilla does exist then create and override a file called /usr/X11R6/mozilla.sample
How-To-Repeat: Read http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html

And thus install mozilla and flash. This includes modifing /usr/X11R6/mozilla. Then (force a) upgrade (of) mozilla.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Since the preferred Flash plug-in is now linuxpluginwrapper, and it no longer 
requires the modification of the mozilla init script, mozilla will not be 
modified.
