I'm trying to make the switch to mozilla-firebird-0.6. However there is no flash support. I've re-installed netscape-flash and even installed gplflash. Still no dice.

This is on an x86 box. netscape-flash works fine in mozilla.

Code:
dseiler@orthanc dseiler $ ls /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
flashplayer.xpt    libflashplayer.so     libnullplugin.so   npflash.so
javaplugin_oji.so  libjavaplugin_oji.so  mplayerplug-in.so  nppdf.so

dseiler@orthanc dseiler $ ls /usr/lib/mozillafirebird/plugins/
libnullplugin.so


So neither of the flashplayer ebuilds are linking into firebird? Do new revisions of those ebuilds need to be built?

I think I'm just a victim of this:

I just added the links manually, same ones I saw in my mozilla plugins folder. Flash, Java etc all seem to work fine.
