Public bug reported: Google Streetview seems to have stopped working with package flashplugin-nonfree 10.0.1.218+really9.0.277.0ubuntu1 on 8.04, Hardy. I've been a happy user for months but on 2010-06-22, on dropping the orange man on the map, a balloon appears saying "To use street view, you need Adobe Flash Player version 10 or newer". It was fine last week.
I think it must only be the check for the version of Flash that's failing because if I visit a site that embeds Streetview, e.g. http://www.rightmove.co.uk/property-for-sale/property-14227569.html and hit the Streetview link under the main picture, Streetview still works fine. (This isn't a workaround however!) Not having Streetview anymore is a pain for 8.04 repository users. I've no doubt I could ditch flashplugin-nonfree and install a later version from Adobe's site but sticking to the repos is an attraction of a LTS release. ** Affects: flashplugin-nonfree (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Google Streetview detects Flash isn't version 10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/598040 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
