Opera && flashplugin 10.0.12.36-1 [Solved]

Hi people.

First post for me in these forums cause i haven't had any major problem so far with Arch.
Anyway, the latest update of my system included the latest flash plugin and it broke out the links to the plugin in opera.
The problem i have doesn't seem to be the same as this one since the plugin doesn't even appear on the opera:plugins page.

So, i'd like to know :
- what library do i have to link into the plugins directory (i.e. where does the flash plugin actually installs itself) ?
- does opera use the /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or the /usr/lib/opera/plugins directory ?
- is there anything more to do than just adding a symlink in the proper directory ?

Thanks in advance for your answers.
Cheers
Ed

pacman -Ql flashplugin will show you the path, you can specify the plugin search path in opera.

Thanks for your answer lucke

However i read on this page that new dependencies were required for the new flashplugin.
So i had to install curl and nss.

Sorry for the mess... Just needed to search for 5 more minutes...
You know you can get lazy sometimes

Cheers all.
