I'll uninstall it and see if anything breaks. You need it to run 32-bit Flash on 64-bit Fedora, which is still our recommended setup for the proprietary Flash (as Adobe does not update the 64-bit plugin anywhere near as quickly as the 32-bit one, so it's usually vulnerable to an assortment of widely known, critical security issues, which is not something you want, to put it mildly). And even when arch isn't an issue, nspluginwrapper provides isolation for plugins; when a plugin crashes, the browser doesn't. (This is marketed as a feature of other browsers, notably Chrome.) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
