mozilla-opensc firefox plugin not visible in FF3 (bad install directory)

Bug #202343 reported by Stéphane Loeuillet on 2008-03-14

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	opensc (Ubuntu)	Fix Released	Undecided	Mario Limonciello	Ubuntu ubuntu-8.04

Bug Description

I juste installed mozilla-opensc plugin for use in FireFox 3 beta 4.

This installed a symlink into :
/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/

But it seems that Firefox 3 prefers them inside :
/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/

A java plugin has the same problem (can't be found by FF3b4)

Attached debdiff for Hardy. I also tested that link is installed correctly and security module loads in firefox3.

given that this was tested, i am fine to get this fix into hardy. anyone volunteers to upload? :)

Please also ensure that the proper Npp-XXX headers are in debian/control so this plugin properly gets enlisted in the plugin finder database - which i will update the next days.

Thanks asac, updated the debdiff. I added support for firefox and seamonkey, and tested that the security module seems to register with both. I was unsure if Xb-Npp-MimeType is supposed to be included at all, so I left it out.

I also ran into http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=457322 while installing the resulting binaries, so I applied change from Debian to fix it, I hope it's okay.

As discussed in irc, Xb-Npp-XXX headers don't seem appropriate for this module.
