+<PRE>Hey there,
+
+currently nspluginwrapper tries to wrap x86_64 plugins (like native x86_64
+flash player plugin), but there is only i386 npviewer which is needed to run
+the plugins. You can see the problem from the following output, which are a
+more verbose form of the scripts run through nspluginwrapper filetrigger:
+
+$ nspluginwrapper -v -i /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
+*** NSPlugin Viewer *** ERROR: /usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so:
+wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
+nspluginwrapper: no appropriate viewer found for
+/usr/lib64/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so
+
+In my and Anssi's opinion, nspluginwrapper.script (from nspluginwrapper
+filetrigger,
+<A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/nspluginwrapper/current/SOURCES/nspluginwrapper.script?view=markup">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/nspluginwrapper/current/SOURCES/nspluginwrapper.script?view=markup</A>
+) should be modified by excluding /usr/lib64. BTW the scripts run during
+nspluginwrapper installation/removal get it right by only using /usr/lib:
+<A HREF="http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/nspluginwrapper/current/SPECS/nspluginwrapper.spec?view=markup">http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/cauldron/nspluginwrapper/current/SPECS/nspluginwrapper.spec?view=markup</A>
+Anybody more knowledgeable on nspluginwrapper care to share his opinion, or are
+there other reasons for objections?
+
+
+Also are there good reasons to still use nspluginwraper for flash player at
+all, as all current browser support out-of-thread execution of plugins and
+flash-player-plugin is available as native i586 and x86_64 plugins?
