>Description:
Simply put, www/linux-flashplugin9 is unusable, anyone looks at
-questions every now and again will see that lots of people are trying
to get it to run, I have not seen a single success story.

IMO this port is so unusable it deserves to be marked as BROKEN, I see
lots of people spending lots of time trying to install this port and
failing...
