Bug#654350: chromium: Wrongly warns about lightspark "Flash plugin" being out-of-date.

[Didier Raboud]

Package: chromium
Version: 16.0.912.63~r113337-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Hi,

as described in the upstream bugreport, chromium as currently available in
sid, when browser-plugin-lightspark is installed, warns about it being
outdated, which is wrong.

Chromium should not propose to the user a replacement of a free flash
implementation with a proprietary one, especially not when lightspark is _not_
out-dated.

Cheers,

OdyX
