Description sphakka 2013-09-10 20:02:27 UTC
I have www-plugins/mozplugger-1.14.3 currently installed, and it's now masked because:

- www-plugins/mozplugger-1.14.3::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Ian Stakenvicius <axs@gentoo.org> (26 Aug 2013)
# on behalf of mozilla@gentoo.org
# Severely outdated, no interest in maintaining,
# only a matter of time before it breaks
# Masked for removal in 30 days.

However, mozplugger doesn't look dead at all, since there have been many updates since v1.14.3. See URL: as of today the last version available is 2.1.2 (6 months old). Maybe it's worth having a look.

Reproducible: Always

Looks have been had, so far nobody's stepped up; and from my own testing there are some fairly major issues.
