When I run update-flashplugin I get told <quote>
Checking new upstream release...
I: checking http://macromedia.rediris.es/tarball/debian/...
No new version is detected. ( = not installed)
</quote> because, as I've now found by visiting all sites by hand, all
of the entries in update-flashplugin.conf.rb URLs relate to URLs that
404. Is there an actual authoritative source at macromedia.com that
could be included in the list ? Chasing links at macromedia.rediris.es
found me no suitable gpg-md5sums.txt at a new, re-organized location.
The script tests <quote>
if version && @version != version
... do install or talk about it
else
_print "No new version is detected. (#{version} = [EMAIL
PROTECTED])\n"
end
</quote> which is in error when !version; it should produce distinct
error messages in the cases !version and (the case actually refered to
by the existing error message) version == @version.
In addition, this script uses a mixture of tab-widths; some of it uses 4
and some uses 8 - it would be easier to read if it consistently used one
or the other !
There follows a trivial patch which it would be nice to see applied to
the script for the sake of Opera users,
Eddy.
