I ran into this today when going to youtube in Firefox on Kubuntu after
installing from the 20080417.1 daily build.
** Changed in: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Medium
Status: Fix Released => Confirmed
** Description changed:
+ LATEST ISO TESTED:
+ 20080417.1
+
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
When visiting a site such as youtube Firefox informs me I don't have the
capability to play flash and therefore to install a plugin. The
installation always fails and directs me to a manual install.
This problem occurred after an upgrade from gutsy to hardy using update
manager -d. Firefox 2, which I used in gutsy was able to play flash
without a problem. Reinstalling plugins from Synaptic had no effect.
After accepting the adobe agreement it downloads the file then displays
the error message : Malformed File
"Firefox could not install this item because "install-erz..rdf"
(provided by the item) is not well-formed or does not exist. Please
contact the author about this problem."
More information available on request.
Cheers
