Bug#455041: Symlinks to libgcjwebplugin.so are not created automatically after clean install
Package: java-gcj-compat-plugin
Version: 1.0.76-5
Severity: normal
After installation of the java-gcj-compat-plugin package, the applets
still did not work in Iceweasel (instead, "Plugins required" message
kept popping up), until I manually created a link to the plugin file in
the browser's plugins directory:
ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.2-1.5.0.0/jre/lib/libgcjwebplugin.so
/usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/libgcjwebplugin.so
The install or configure script did not do this automatically. Neither
for Iceweasel, nor for any of the other supported browsers.
