Re: [aur-general] Arch holiday madness! nominations
I nominate lightspark. It's a new Free Software Flash player that's been getting a lot of press and development lately. Let's make it easier for people to try it to see if it works for them yet! ^_^ https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39063 -Isaac
Re: [aur-general] Arch holiday madness! nominations
Given my position, I'm exempting myself from this process, however I have to admit I'm intrigued by lightspark. I never would have heard of it if not for this message. Perhaps someone should do an article on it (or on Flash alternatives in general) for Rolling Release?

If there were alternatives, or at least alternative flash players... Gnash, according to some document on their website, doesn't even try to sync audio and video, rather it's impossible by design. Both gnash and lightspark seem to focus on making youtube work and fail more often than not. Needless to say that there's more to flash than youtube. The flash situation is still horrible, there are no alternative players.

The problem with lightspark is, that it still depends on pulseaudio. As far as I know in the meantime the audio playback is redesigned and implemented as a plugin system, but the only audio plugin is still pulseaudio. Hopefully there will be an ALSA plugin in the future as already requested by several users. Heiko
[aur-general] Delete pamusb package
Can someone please delete the "pamusb" package. It is a duplicate of "pam_usb"... I obviously didn't see pam_usb before creating pamusb. Thx, ~p
