Gnash is a noble effort.  Gnash sucks.  I want choice, and my choice is
Adobe Flash.  Installing Gnash screws up Flash.  Right now, I can refuse to

not be a viable option.  Why does GNOME require Gnash?  And what can I do to
put a stop to it?


I think this is why we have the whole testing process.

I kind of regretted writing that. I want Gnash to succeed. I wouldprefer a free and open choice, and I certainly hate Flash. I just wantthings to work.
