>Description:
nspluginplayer in the nspluginwrapper port was failing due to a bad pthread_mutex_unlock. Some web searches found the same bug for other OSes. It appears that the GTK+ API has changed. This patch fixes the problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
nspluginplayer --verbose type=application/x-shockwave-flash src=test.swf
test.swf does not need to exist, but a valid plugin is required.
I found this bug while trying to diagnose an incorrect flash plugin install.
To enable debug and see the offending function call, this port requires some manual edits to the Makefile to enable debugging. I forgot to save the diffs. My memory is changing "--enable-strip" to "disable-strip" in CONFIGURE_ARGS, and adding "-g" to CFLAGS.
>Fix:
# cd /usr/ports/www/nspluginwrapper
# make clean
# make patch
edit work/nspluginwrapper-1.4.4/src/npw-player.c
