>Description:
As of Firefox 2.0.0.20, plugins are apparently found in 
/usr/local/lib/firefox/plugins/ but nspluginwrapper 1.2.2_1 still links them to
/usr/local/lib/browser_plugins

Manually linking the plugins from the old place to the new place makes Firefox find them.

>How-To-Repeat:
clear out /usr/local/lib/firefox/plugins/, run nspluginwrapper -a, observe links in the wrong place
