Package: swfdec-mozilla
Version: 0.8.2-1

I noticed on the swfdec wiki that the installation for swfdec-mozilla
suggested updating the /etc/alternatives symlink to the new location:

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/swfdec/libswfdecmozilla.so
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so

This didn't seem very "Debian", because I'm used to using
'update-alternatives --config' for such things (in cases where the
automatic decisions don't match my preferences. Could the package please
be changed so that the alternatives configuration works as expected?

current output (after installing package):

# update-alternatives --config mozilla-flashplugin

There is only 1 program which provides mozilla-flashplugin
(/usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so). Nothing to configure.


preferred output:

# update-alternatives --config mozilla-flashplugin

There are 2 alternatives which provide `mozilla-flashplugin'.
  Selection    Alternative
-----------------------------------------------
*+        1    /usr/lib/adobe-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so
          2    /usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so

One way to do this post-install is the following:

# update-alternatives --install
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/flashplugin-alternative.so mozilla-flashplugin
/usr/lib/swfdec-mozilla/libswfdecmozilla.so 50

but it would be nice to have that done automatically when installing the
package.
