today I updated Firefox 47 to 48 (via Mandriva updates) on OpenMandriva 2014.2 x64. I noticed there are nearly no plugins loaded, only one remained: OpenH264 Video Codec provided by Cisco Systems. I can’t see any other in about:plugins and I used to have many before (there was no problem in Firefox 47). For me there is mainly important Adobe Flash plugin. I have the symlink in /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so, but it seems Firefox doesn’t handle it. There is no such problem with Firefox 48 on Windows platform. I tried to google the problem, but found nothing. Probably only OpenMandriva issue. Does anybody face to the same problem?
it works here.
but I have a symlink in $HOME/.mozilla/plugins → /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins
maybe something has changed
if so a bugreport should be filed
Yes, but everything appears to be present an working. Here it just looks like that list that is empty. For instance ABP, Last Pass, S3.Google Translator,and Down Them All I know are all working. Flash Player working. This in Firefox 48.0 in fresh install yesterday of 3.0 (.iso # 491).
But if you could be so kind as to file I bug report that would be awesome.
Yes, I see no other plugins than what you mention. However, Youtube goes fine, Libreoffice is launched wherever it is needed.
So far, I see no problem since firefox still “calls” support of that plugins!
Youtube goes fine, but only due to native HTML5 support in FF. I use extension “YouTube Flash Video Player” which allows me to select what player I want to use by default. And if I choose Adobe flash player, it is now of course not working, since libflashplayer.so file isn’t loaded by Firefox.
