-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Oh, I'm in trouble now. I was getting a bit frustrated, because all the different names that my browsers hide under, and the fact that 2 other items confuse things: 1) the config dirs aren't always named after the program, and 2) the G_D_ ports often installed things into /usr/local/ even for linux things, and other times into /compat, and that terribly screws things up. Why am I complaining? Because now, for Linux-firefox, I do have the flashplayer.9 working, but with all the screwing around I couldn't duplicate it. The problem was initially the flashplayer, because the version in ports no longer even exists. I went to the Adobe site, and just got the latest. Then, the version of libdl that Linux-firefox wants is not only different thanthe version that the flashplayer wants, they (I think) aren't always looking in the same dir for it. Whatever, it CAN be done, because I did it. Boy, I wish that the portsmeisters would (once and for all, plublicly) decide that linux libs have to install into the /compat/linux tree. If they would go on record for that, I would begin fixing ports to obey it. Can't do that now. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHaZCOz62J6PPcoOkRAqVvAJ0WbGqYUWehBtoPYArnDAto6D/p9wCghTb5 0qig9SBuooqMTYwupFbcVbU= =YEFq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
