Taking a deeper look at phoenix, it seems that it does check
$HOME/.mozilla/plugins, but not /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. I feel
this is a bug with phoenix which doesn't really warrant a workaround
to be implemented in mozplugger and other plugins.
There are several other browsers based on Mozilla that may or may
not check /usr/lib/mozilla for plugins. Should every plugin for
Mozilla have to check for the existence of each Mozilla-based
browser? It seems slightly ludicrous, IMHO. Also, the postinst/prerm
idea fails if mozplugger is installed before phoenix :(
Just some random thoughts. Comments? :)
Regards,
Bernard.
