Description Mart Raudsepp gentoo-dev

adobe-flash package is inventing a local npapi USE flag instead of using the global nsplugin USE flag. Please consider using the widely used IUSE=nsplugin instead. Default enabling it still sounds good.

Also note that both npapi and ppapi local USE flag descriptions have an opening parenthesis, but no closing one.

<flag name="nsplugin">Install the Netscape Flash API plugin (for Firefox and similar browsers</flag>
<flag name="ppapi">Install the Pepper Flash API plugin (for Chrome and similar browsers</flag>

Closing parenthesis still missing
