Deprecated klash kde3 binaries removed and not replaced with gnash-kde4

@war10ck:
can you test packages in my ppa to see if they fix your issue?

@Sindhudweep Sarkar:
Packages in yours ppa don't fix this issue.
Just take a look at konqueror-plugin-gnash and klash packages - they have just docs, no binaries inside.
According to 'configure' script gnash has to be configured with "--enable-gui=kde4 --enable-kparts4" options for Klash build and Konqueror plugin support.

Maybe debian/* files in this archive will help to build and package it with both GTK and KDE4 support.

http://www.getgnash.org/packages/snapshots/ubuntu/8.10/gnash_trunk20090225.tar.gz

@Sindhudweep Sarkar:
Yours 0.8.5-0ubuntu1~ppa2 packages are older for apt/dpkg than those in standard ubuntu repositories. Now I've installed them with dpkg and I saw there is Klash compiled (& seams to be working) now but there's no Konqueror plugin compiled yet.
Please take a look at kde4 services files here:
http://www.getgnash.org/packages/snapshots/ubuntu/8.10/konqueror-plugin-gnash_trunk20090225_i386.deb
But one suggestion: /usr/share/kde4/apps/klash/pluginsinfo might contain:

-- snip --
number=1

[0]
description=Shockwave Flash 10.0.0.544
file=libklashpart.so
mime=application/x-shockwave-flash:swf:Shockwave Flash;application/futuresplash:spl:FutureSplash Player
name=Shockwave Flash
-- snip --

or something simmilar (I've used last flash version from wikipedia) to help flash support on sites which need flash > 7.0

The konqueror plugin is a _seperate_ packaging issue, and I will be
dealing with that later.

This is what you should see in the package

./
usr/
usr/bin/
usr/bin/kde4-gnash
usr/bin/gnash
usr/share/
usr/share/doc/
usr/share/doc/klash/
usr/share/doc/klash/changelog.gz
usr/share/doc/klash/changelog.Debian.gz
usr/share/doc/klash/copyright
usr/share/pixmaps/
usr/share/pixmaps/klash.xpm
usr/share/applications/
usr/share/applications/klash.desktop

unless I am terribly mistaken, kde4-gnash is there. please test.

Hmm maybe i made a versioning mistake. I assumed 0.8.5-0ubuntu1 would
be superceeded by 0.8.5-0ubuntu1~ppa2. Can you suggest a fix for this?
Glad to know Klash seems to be working.

Maybe 0.8.5-0ubuntu2~ppa2 as package version? Then new version in ubuntu repositories like 0.8.5-0ubuntu2 and up should superceed it on upgrade.
I can now confirm that klash works properly with flash content on some sites I've tested (launched by "kde4-gnash http://website/flash_content.swf" in console - urls and content parameters extracted from web sites source) and indeed "description=Shockwave Flash 10.0.0.544" would help a lot - there are many sites with excessive dependency on flash 9 or 10 even with simple flash content which flash compatibile player compatibile with 6 or 7 can process without problems.

When does this get in the ubuntu repos? I'd like to use klash with kubuntu 9.04

I have to incorporate some suggestions from Tomasz and talk to
upstream about a question I have. Following that I'll have to get some
review time from the package maintainer, and I'm guessing he's
extremely busy right now given how late it is in the release cycle.

kde isnt supported anymore; nobody stepped up to add packaging support for kde4.

of course, open for contributions.
