Advisory ======== The Flashplayer plugin has been updated to the latest release from Adobe. References ========== Files ===== Uploaded to nonfree/updates_testing flash-player-plugin-29.0.0.140-1.mga6 from flash-player-plugin-29.0.0.140-1.mga6.src.rpm
Installed without issue but there are regressions. Tested using Firefox 52.6.0 and Firefox 56.0b12. I had the flash plugin setup to always activate. Tested on several sites (e.g. games, videos). On both 52.6.0 and 56.0b12 the page http://get.adobe.com/br/flashplayer/about/ does not work. It should show a small box with the current flash plugin version. On 52.6.0, some sites work while others don't (just shows a blank area instead of the usual flash content). On 56.0b12, no site with flash that I have tested worked. Often the tab would crash and show a Firefox crash report page.
