Hi Bart,
sounds great, thank you for your work to keep the pepper version of
flash available and up-to-date; it's appreciated.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for reporting this.
What happened :
The script I use on people.d.o for updating the .txt files there relies on this
to extract the Flash Player version from the .so file :
newflashversion=`strings $sofile |grep "^LNX "|sed -e "s,^LNX ,,"|sed -e
"s%,%.%g"`
This has worked fine for many years. I mean, not only for
pepperflashplugin-nonfree but also for also for flashplugin-nonfree that exists
for much longer. Now 15.0.0.152 is the first Flash Player version deviating
from this. It needs the two added dots :
newflashversion=`strings $sofile |grep "^..LNX "|sed -e "s,^..LNX ,,"|sed -e
"s%,%.%g"`
Solution :
So I updated my script on people.d.o to still do the first, and additionally do
the second if needed. And I added a check to detect if no version could be
extracted, so that no bad .txt file is created on people.d.o and I get alerted.
The .txt files on people.d.o are now fixed.
I'm now updating pepperflashplugin-nonfree to remove bad .txt files from
/var/cache/pepperflashplugin-nonfree, and to recognize such bad .txt files in
the future. I'll close this bug with pepperflashplugin-nonfree 1.6.
Workaround :
If you can't wait for pepperflashplugin-nonfree 1.6, then a quick workaround is
to manually remove the bad .txt files from
/var/cache/pepperflashplugin-nonfree.
Regards,
Bart Martens
