Package: swf-player
Version: 0.3.2-2
Followup-For: Bug #285135

I can understand Sven when asking for RC level for this bug. 
Like it or not, Flash is essential nowadays for webbrowsing and some sites
are not usuable without a decent swf player. 
Having a swf player shipped with sarge that doesn't work properly, will be
no good for Sarge on PPC. 
Currently it renders such packages as Firefox unuseable to some degree, not
in general, but in parts. The purpose of using a webbrowser is questioned
when you can't get your information you need, just because swf-player goes
nuts and takes away >90% of you CPU time. 

The problems of swf-player forced me to use Firefox on MacOS X as my main
browsing platform, so Firefox on Debian actually became unuseable for me
already due to swf-player. 

Sadly, I can just offer you to help you with testing and maybe with a login
on a PowerPC machine, if you need one for faster/better debugging purposes. 

regards, 
Ingo
