this bug is still present on karmic. the problem is the postinst script in the sun-java6-plugin package, which only installs an alternative in /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9/plugins, but not in the 'canonical' location for plugins which is /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
to fix this, line 6 of the postinst script should read: browser_dirs="xulrunner-addons mozilla" then the alternative would be installed in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, along with the xulrunner dir. for reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/firefox_3.5_for_developers states "Firefox now looks for plugins in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins on Linux, as well as the previously supported locations.", which also applies to seamonkey2. -- Installing sun-java6-plugin does not result in working seamonkey java https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269136 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
