Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
According to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icedtea-web/+changelog #detail_icedtea-web_1.8-0ubuntu8~18.04 the plugin was removed due to the lack of support for NPAPI from all major browsers, as follows: Provide empty icedtea-netx-common, icedtea-plugin and icedtea-8-plugin packages to match the binary packages found in 18.04 LTS. The plugin packages are non-functional, because the NPAPI support in browsers was already removed. Do you have a use case where that library is actually required? Could you please describe the steps to reproduce it? Note: Setting it as incomplete until more information becomes available. ** Changed in: icedtea-web (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags removed: regression-update -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1902708 Title: icedtea-8-plugin is missing IcedTeaPlugin.so To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icedtea-web/+bug/1902708/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
