Description Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-07-21 10:58:25 UTC 
We still see the following warning:

LOG: postinst
The icedtea-bin-7 browser plugin can be enabled using eselect java-nsplugin
Note that the plugin works only in browsers based on xulrunner-1.9.1+
such as Firefox 3.5+ and recent Chromium versions.

But that browsers are not in the tree for a long time and, then, this message looks useless this days

Thanks for dropping it

Reproducible: Always
