>Description:
I've got a report that my port graphics/gnash doesn't install with the following error:
> ERROR: The "/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins/gnash" in WEBPLUGINS_DIR is
> either a typo or no longer exists. Please make a bug report to

The problem is likely in Makefile.webplugins, as it has the following dependency line:
post-install: webplugins-post-install
however gnash installs plugins in post-install, thus the order is
broken - webplugins-post-install is ran before the plugins are
installed. The installation is reported to be fixed after making
gnash port install plugins in pre-install instead.
I really wonder why this hadn't shown itself in a tinderbox and why
I can't reproduce it locally, however Makefile.webplugins logic should
be fixed to run webplugins-post-install after any installation tasks
that may be run by a port.
Port maintainer (gecko at FreeBSD.org) is cc'd.
