Re: [Mplayerplug-in-devel] /usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/plugins vs. /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

[Alex E. <ale...@ya...>]

Sorry, just realized that there is a nasty installation issue. 

If you compile the plugin from the tar file, and do a 
make sysintall, it will go (on my system) to 
/usr/lib/mozilla-1.6/plugins. But, other plugins usually
go into /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. This can create some nasty
effects: 
(1) I had two versions of the plugin showing in the "About Plugins"
tab, and only the first one was active. 
(2) after I removed ~/.mozilla/pluginreg.dat, I had only
    one plugin version, but everything stopped working. This was
    because /usr/lib/mozilla/ plugins have priority, and I had
    mozplugger installed (since I need it for e.g. openoffice), 
    and it was taking over all the media types. 

Best, 
Alex
