In the function inst_plugin() in the nsplugins class, the messages which are output to the user refer to a java plugin. However, this class can be used for plugins which have nothing to do with java, e.g. mplayer-plugin. The two einfo lines in this function should be changed. I will attach a patch to show what I mean. At the same time, I have changed the reference to "phoenix" to refer to "firebird". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install an ebuild which uses the nsplugins class to install a plugin which is not a java plugin (e.g. net-www/mplayer-plugin). Actual Results: When emerging such a plugin for the first time, the following is displayed: "Symlinked the java plugin into the mozilla/phoenix/galeon plugin directory." Expected Results: It should have either said (e.g.) "Symlinked the MPlayer Plugin into the mozilla/firebird/galeon plugin directory." or just "Symlinked the plugin into the mozilla/firebird/galeon plugin directory." It should not have mentioned anything about java.
