Bug#712712: Good News! (Was: Bug#712712: gnash: Doesn't play YouTube...)

[Kingsley G. Morse Jr.]

Hi Gabriele,

I'm happy to report that I followed your advice
and gnash now plays YouTube videos on my computer
too.

Specifically, I cleaned out non-standard
repositories and did a full upgrade on sid.

But, the last thing I tried before gnash worked?

Rebooting!

In any event, thank you for so patiently sharing
your thoughts.

If I ask you nicely, and maybe file a new bug
report, may I please have the benefit of your
informed thoughts on how gnash might work with a
few other, non-YouTube, sites?

Thanks,
Kingsley
