Hi all,
I yesterday updated Chromium to 54.0.2840.59 (stable) in my desktop
machine and since then it is not able to find the Flash plugin. The day
before, I've updated `www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins` to 54.0.2840.59
(stable).
Everything went as usual--no warnings, no errors...
After restarting Chromium, it is not able to find the Flash plugin. It
is not listed in `chrome://plugins` and `chrome://flash` says, that it
was not installed. I've nothing changed, before the update it worked
just out of the box.
Has anybody any pointer for me, how to fix this?
Thanks in advance,
Stephan

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question.
And the answer is "No".

I have both www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins and www-plugins/adobe-flash. The
plugin listed in chromium appears to be adobe-flash. I am guessing this is a
recent change, because if I recall correctly I had to install chrome-binary-
plugins to be able to play flash videos in the first place.

Thanks for your help quick help, Alexander and Mick. I've unmerged
`www-plugins/chrome-binary-plugins` and merged `www-plugins/adobe-flash`
and now it works as expected.
Best,
Stephan

I know the maintainers are busy, but it would be good to have an enotice
telling us that chrome-binary-plugins are no longer necessary for flash media
content ... unless they are for other things?
