[Bug 235946] Re: No Appropriate Viewer Error in Hardy 64

I am also running into this issue on Kubuntu Hardy x86_64 when installing flashplugin-nonfree, although I see one extra error line:
----
Flash Plugin installed.
*** NSPlugin Viewer *** preloader not found
nspluginwrapper: no appropriate viewer found for /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
----

The same error is reproducible when running 'nspluginwrapper -i'
manually.

nspluginwrapper version: 0.9.91.6-1ubuntu1

It looks like the 'no appropriate viewer' error is printed after a non-
ok status is returned from 'detect_plugin_viewer' in nspluginwrapper's
npw-config.c.

If I had to guess, I would say in my case the viewer is trying to run
but encounters some kind of error ('preloader not found'), and in
stephenb's case, the viewer is either not found or has some different
kind of error (one that doesn't print out any error messages).

Funny that the version in the repository seems to be newer than the
latest announced version on the maintainer's website =)
