Installed from:    I Don't Know

Binary package hint: kdebase

hardy heron - 8.04

konqueror version 3.5.9-0ubuntu1

After a fresh install of Kubuntu from the i386 DVD image from 20080318.1
I launched konqueror and went to www.youtube.com and
www.ubuntuvideo.com. At neither web site was I prompted to install a
flash plugin.

Unfortunately it does not seem to be fixed in trunk or KDE 4.2.3, where
the fix was backported.

The problem here seems to be that youtube is doing its own checks for
Flash, and won't embed the flash object unless Flash is found. The way
flash detection currently works is that a "do you want to download
flash" dialog is given if a page tries to embed flash when it is not
installed.

What should we do about this ? As Jonathan described this seems to be out of 
scope.
Thanks

Firefox manages to do it, so it's not exactly impossible. But I dunno
how we'd go about detecting it better.

Would it help having the flash package pulled as a dependency of
firefox?

Distro Firefox packages don't do that either, since flash in nonfree
software.
