See the file "COPYING" that is included in the distribution for details.

|
|
Overview
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
nspluginwrapper consists in a proxy plugin and a viewer for NPAPI
|
|
compatible plugins. It makes it possible to use 32-bit x86 plugins
|
|
like Adobe Flash Player on other platforms like Linux/x86_64, *BSD and
|
|
even Linux/ppc.

|
Quick build notes
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
To simplify the build of the 32-bit viewer, a minimal subset of LSB
|
|
Desktop 3.1 is included in this distribution. Hence, you only have
|
|
to proceed as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure
|
|
$ make
|
|
# make install
|
|
|
|
Or, if you prefer from a source package:
|
|
$ rpm --rebuild nspluginwrapper.src.rpm
|
|
|
|
|
|
Requirements and Installation
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
A Mozilla based browser built with GTK 2 support is currently required
|
|
for proper operation. An alternative is Konqueror but it does not yet
|
|
support the npruntime scripting API.
|
|
|
|
On package installation, 32-bit plugins are automatically recognized
|
|
provided they are available in the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins directory.
|
|
|
|
You can manually install/remove/update plugins with "nspluginwrapper".
|
|
|
|
usage: nspluginwrapper [flags] [command [plugin(s)]]
|
|
|
|
-h --help print this message
|
|
-a --auto set automatic mode for plugins discovery
|
|
-l --list list plugins currently installed
|
|
-u --update update plugin(s) currently installed
|
|
-i --install [FILE(S)] install plugin(s)
|
|
-r --remove [FILE(S)] remove plugin(s)
|
|
|
|
[plugin(s)] are full paths to actual plugin binaries (e.g. nppdf.so
|
|
for Acrobat Reader, libflashplayer.so for Flash).
|
