[Bug 1585379] Re: pepper plugin path is hard coded in the source

 

Hi,

To your question about bundling the plugin into a click/snap: you cannot
unfortunately. You would need a specific licence for redistributing the
plugin.

This explains why the plugin is searched for in standard, hard-coded,
locations in Oxide.

The chrome vs chrome-beta part is probably due to an extra check done
inside that browser, but that is not related to Oxide.

Title:
  pepper plugin path is hard coded in the source

Status in Oxide:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Could it be possible for click apps to have the plugin bundled?

  An environment variable should be nice. Or in the
  ./lib/<triplet>/PepperFlash directory of the click app.

  Now it's hard coded to the location of the adobe plugin or the chrome
  version.

  It would be nice to be able to package it with the click as it then
  could be used on systems that don't have it.

  I also have this problem with chrome-beta installed. I had to symlink
  /opt/google/chrome-beta to /opt/google/chrome to make it work.

  The same problem is true with chrome-daily.
