Description Ahmad Samir 2011-07-02 18:25:16 CEST 
In mga1 Live ISO's nspluginwrapper is available, and since it was suggested by firefox it gets installed by default. This is not needed on i586 systems because now Firefox has its native out-of-process plugins, if a plugin crashes, Firefox won't crash.

nspluginwrapper is now mostly useful making 32bit-only plugins work for 64bit browsers.

FWIW, nspluginwrapper isn't available on either of the DVD ISO's (maybe it should be on the x86_64 ISO).

P.S. I've already changed firefox to only suggest nspluginwrapper on x86_64 installs.

I will open a separate bug for removing the suggest in firefox because it's also a mess.
