ubufox bug has been fixed.

However I see the following problems:
1. Adobe Flash Player installer does NOT work on 64 bit Ubuntu 9.04 (bug #361430).
2. (cosmetic) "Adobe Player" and "Gnash Player" using capital "P", while "Swfdec player" uses small "p".
3. (cosmetic) Adobe Flash Player URL (http://www.adobe.com) is missing a slash "/" at the end.

** Changed in: ubufox (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

-- 
Some plugins lack proper ubufox integration (Was: confusing plugin selection dialog)

Bug description:
To provide proper integration with ubufox,

1. plugins that use update-alternatives mechanism should also put a link for their binary in

 /usr/share/ubufox/plugins/

and touch all /usr/lib/firefox-3.*/.autoreg that exist in .postinst.

2. All plugins should have a Description and Filename header added to the binary package control, like gnash:

Xb-Npp-Description: The GNU SWF Player (http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/)
Xb-Npp-File: libgnashplugin.so

--------

When encountering a java plugin Firefox offers a confusing dialog:
it gives two options:
1. "GCJ Web Browser Plugin"
2. "The GCJ Web Browser Plugin"

the second options supposedly uses openjdk.

No descriptions are given whatsoever.
