Any way you slice it, I cannot make this work. I tried make install-plugin and started with an empty LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and then again with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$prefix/lib/gnash. The complaints about missing symbols disappear like this, but nevertheless the resulting Fx cannot play any flash movies, eg from Youtube. This is with a 3.6.x line Firefox built from source. I am trying to investigate the extent to which using Gnash rather than Flashplayer in Firefox makes it easier to debug Flash-related problems in Fx, but so far I am failing to get to first base. My Fx is running on a vnc server, not on a real X display. Would that make any difference? "make install-plugin" installs a single file, libgnashplugin.so, which is only 339k, and a significant part of that is Dwarf3 debug syms. So it can't have much functionality compared to the rest of gnash, considering that (eg) libgnashcore-0.8.7.so is nearly 92MB in size. Does libgnashplugin.so dlopen/dlsym the rest of the shared objects from their location in $prefix/lib/gnash ?
