Package: totem-mozilla
Version: 2.28.5-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

After installing a fresh squeeze system I've noticed several broken
symbolic links:
/usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/libtotem-{*}-plugin.so
pointing to their respective mozilla counterparts:
../../mozilla/libtotem-{*}-plugin.so

This is wrong, because symlink targets are in fact one directory deeper:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libtotem-{*}-plugin.so
so symlinks should rather point to:
../../mozilla/plugins/libtotem-{*}-plugin.so

I attached a small patch against totem-2.28.5 source, which adds relevant
path parts to debian/totem-mozilla.links file.

Friendly,
Wiktor Wandachowicz
