[SOLVED]Error with makepkg and nspluginwrapper.
Hi all,
I am trying to install flash plugin for firefox. When I run makepkg I get this error...
==> ERROR: install scriptlet (nspluginwrapper.install) does not exist.
I am not sure what is wrong, am I missing something?

Re: [SOLVED]Error with makepkg and nspluginwrapper.
Did you download the whole tarball or just the PKGBUILD?

Re: [SOLVED]Error with makepkg and nspluginwrapper.
To be honest I am a little confused by the installing packages section.
I have downloaded the 2 rpms and rpmextract.sh.

This is what I am following, but I am not sure where the PKGBUILD files should go, do I need PKGBUILD files in each directory?
Thanks for helping by the way.

Yes. You need to build and install nsplugwrapper before you build nspluginwrapper-flash. So, unpack nspluginwrapper, cd into that directory, and follow the instructions on the Wiki. Once successful, do the same for nspluginwrapper-flash.

I finally realised I was using the wrong tarball! Now I have the correct files it works ok.
Thanks for the help skottish.
