Re: Firefox showing flashplugin as outdated although it's not

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I've had exactly this issue; however, when I click on 'update plugin' within firefox, it declares the plugin up-to-date (giving the correct version).

For the last few days, firefox started showing the following message when
trying to run flash content:

..."

I'm running a fully updated os and the package doesn't seem outdated, so I
think it's a problem with firefox reading the flash plugin version wrong.

Packages:

➜  pacman -Q flashplugin firefox
flashplugin 11.2.202.425-1
firefox 34.0.5-1

Have any of you experienced a similar issue?

Thanks.
