OK, that sounds straight forward. Do I then have to make symlinks to the new Flash in /opt? Or
just copy the relevant files to /? -- I just had a look in /usr/lib/ for the existing Flash
plugin and I must admit that I am now somewhat confused. There are several dirs, including:
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0.3/plugins (which is actually a link to /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins
(which is empty).
and:
/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree (which contains the libflashplayer.so file).
So, where do I put the libflashplayer.so for Flash 10?
Blessings,
Nigel
