Description Alessandro Capogna 2011-12-21 14:24:54 UTC

as you can see in bug 392341 this package is no more useful due to support flash9 only (that is no more in the tree, and it's known to have a lot of security issues). Thanks

Reproducible: Always

CCing also pulseaudio maintainers to confirm this is no longer needed

I use oss4 and need libflashsupport to have sound in flash.  This is using latest firefox and flash from portage. oss4 comes from the (semi-offical?) oss overlay. Maybe libflashsupport could live on in that overlay?
