Bug 125321 – mozplugger install broken

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Bret Towe 2006-03-06 19:04:07 UTC]

after a -e world for gcc 4.1 i noticed mozplugger wasnt catching
pdf files any more after looking into it seems that the line

inst_plugin $PLUGIN/mozplugger.so

seems to just overwrite it and create it into a symlink
overwriting the orignal plugin .so file
removing the line fixes the issue for me but
thats not exactly a correct solution
perhaps the eclass is busted?

Works for me too, could you please update the rest of your system/profile and reopen if it's still an issue? Your portage seems quite old.
