Description Kristoffer Grundström 2011-05-01 04:14:27 CEST 
Description of problem: I see that the browser-plugin for Java is missing in Mageia repos when I used :v java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin -r cauldron to confirm.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.6.0

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any browser of your choice.
2. To confirm that the browser-plugin isn't there you can go to www.keepvid.com & paste a youtube-link & try to retrieve links for the video.
3. Note that it keeps on trying & trying & trying without any prompt to accept like the instructions on www.keepvid.com tell you to do.
4. Open a new tab & type about:plugins & read which plugins you have enabled.
5. Voila! The browser-plugin for Java isn't visible since there is none to install.

My bad.
Didn't know that there was one.

Shouldn't it be installed by default when you install flashplayer from Adobe?
