I have a strange happening.
On my F19.x86_64 home server, I have both firefox-34.0-1.fc19.x86_64 and
the latest Adobe flash-plugin-11.2.202.468-release.x86_64 installed.
About:plugins shows that it is the correct plugin, and all seems to work
as expected.
On my F20.x86_64 laptop, again, I have both firefox-38.0.5-1.fc20.x86_64
and the latest Adobe flash-plugin-11.2.202.468-release.x86_64 installed.
About:plugins however shows that version 11.2.202.466 is the current
installed version of the flash plugin being used by firefox.
A quick look at my systems shows that there are only 2 libflashplayer.so
files:
/usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so
/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
And a quick check of both of them shows:
strings /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so | grep 11.2.202
FlashPlayer_11_2_202_468_FlashPlayer
LNX 11,2,202,468
11.2.202.468
drm/%s/%s/%s/11.2.202.468%s
So, if the file in the location that firefox about:plugins shows that it
is 11.2.202.468, then why does firefox say it is:
Shockwave Flash
File: libflashplayer.so
Path: /usr/lib64/flash-plugin/libflashplayer.so
Version: 11.2.202.466
State: Enabled (STATE_VULNERABLE_UPDATE_AVAILABLE)
Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202
This is weird!
