Also I would say you likely could do without this alternatives business, and put a libjavaplugin.so sym link directly in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins. The reason I have it like this is that at some point I had the IcedTea plugin installed and then using the alternatives I could switch easily between the two. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
