Description Ulenrich 2013-05-31 17:46:18 UTC 
Having this flash maintained by google seems to me better supported than Adobe original package. Users should be encouraged to use it with chromium.

Having it in the tree without issues since:
*chrome-binary-plugins-27.0.1453.47_beta193194 (16 Apr 2013)

Why not push this stable?
www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins-27.0.1453.93_beta200836

Called beta - it is the same as stable upstream ...

Reproducible: Always

www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins-27.0.1453.93_p200836

We cannot stabilize this because Google does not keep the deb files on their server after releasing a new version. This ends up breaking the stable tree every few weeks.

See my blog post for details.
