Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: konqueror-nsplugins

According to "about:plugins", konqueror should use kmplayer (libkmplayerpart.so) when playing videos embedded in webpages, but it's not always the case: the problem is that many times, kaffeine is used instead. This is not a good thing because:
1) kaffeine doesn't integrate as well as the kmplayer plugin (eg command buttons)
2) kaffeine often crashes konqueror (cf Bug #5346)

kaffeine should *never* be used for playing videos embedded in webpages.
kmplayer should always be used as it works properly.

Why is not libkmplayerpart.so always used ?

** Affects: kdebase (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
