I was able to install hal via the kde-sunset overlay instead of the multilib overlay. Now instead of the "Updating Player" error, flash crashes like this in firefox and chrome: chrome[3681]: segfault at 18 ip 00007f677543202c sp 00007f6764804e00 error 4 in libdbus-1.so.3.5.8[7f6775422000+3e000] plugin-containe[3727]: segfault at 18 ip 00007fd0225d502c sp 00007fd0118bce00 error 4 in libdbus-1.so.3.5.8[7fd0225c5000+3e000] I re-emerged dbus to no avail. Any ideas? - Grant
