Description NHO 2017-02-09 20:13:26 UTC
I periodically run revdep-rebuild to check system consistency. Each time, adobe-flash gets rebuild. As adobe-flash is a binary package, rebuild does nothing. Second run straight after first one repeats the process.

ldd /usr/lib32/nsbrowser/plugins/libflashplayer.so tells me that libraries missing are:
	libXt.so.6 => not found
	libnss3.so => not found
	libsmime3.so => not found
	libssl3.so => not found
	libnspr4.so => not found
	libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
	libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
	libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 => not found
	libpango-1.0.so.0 => not found
	libfontconfig.so.1 => not found
	libgobject-2.0.so.0 => not found
	libglib-2.0.so.0 => not found
	libfreetype.so.6 => not found
64 bit flash player has all dependencies.

I suspect the problem is in ebuild. Also in revdep-rebuild not checking that it fixed the packages it rebuild.

If you have the 32-bit plugin installed, you should also have the 32-bit libs it requires to function.

The dependency atoms in RDEPEND are missing [${MULTILIB_USEDEP}], so portage does not enforce the proper dependency.

Fixed in 25.0.0.171.
