Description Rafał Mużyło 2013-05-06 16:38:34 UTC
Released 08-Apr-2013.
Old ebuild seems to work, but:
- xembed.h no longer necessary
- could use some kind of guard, so it won't try to fetch npapi-sdk, if it's not installed (the ebuild has the dep, but the "autofetch if not present" should be noted for future care)
Comment 1 Dennis Schridde 2013-05-25 17:54:10 UTC
Does npapi-vlc-2.0.6 work with google-chrome-27.0? Because 2.0.0 does not.
Comment 2 Lorenzo Porta (Vindex17) 2015-03-08 16:44:15 UTC
This request is almost 2 years old and it should be pretty simple to update this ebuild... what's the problem?

The latest version however is 2.2.0 (same as vlc) and it can be found here:

P.S. the first message was sent by mistake, sorry

No one has bothered to bump this in ages, and NPAPI is phased out everywhere, it seems more appropriate to dump this package.
