Re: flashplugin-nonfree broken in sarge



Hi Bill,

About this old thread on debian-release:

I think that this would cause the reopening of old bugs.  I understand
that you prefer a solution with minimal changes, but in the case of
flashplugin-nonfree version 7.0.25 that's not enough, in my opinion.

We're a few months later now.  Today I suggest to consider version
7.0.63.7sarge1 as documented here:
http://wiki.debian.org/FlashPlayer

You'll probably want to review it:
http://knars.be/bartm/debian/flashplugin-nonfree_7.0.63.7sarge1.dsc
http://knars.be/bartm/debian/flashplugin-nonfree_7.0.63.7sarge1.tar.gz

If version 7.0.63.7sarge1 is too different from version 7.0.25 to be
allowed in stable-proposed-updates, then I suggest that version 7.0.25
is removed from stable, or that I prepare version 7.0.25remove to be
distributed in stable to remove the old insecure plugin from sarge
installations.

Your opinion on this?

Regards,

Bart Martens
