Comment 53 for bug 173966

@ John Vivirito
no i am not seeing those same issues. the plugin does not show up in about:plugins though.

@ David Jaša
i was going to try to create that symlink, but i have no firefox-javaplugin.so anywhere. (probably a difference betwen openjdk/gcjwebplugin & sun-java).

i noticed in fx trunk that there is this option in about:config:
java.java_plugin_library_name
its a string. by default it is set to: javaplugin_oji

perhaps this is why it isn't recognized by fx trunk?? (i tried changing it to various things such gcjwebplugin but nothing worked, but maybe i didn't try the right name).

after updating the database & a search with "mlocate javaplugin" showed:
/etc/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
/usr/lib/openoffice/program/sunjavaplugin.so
/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/xulrunner-1.9-javaplugin.so
