>Description:
mplayer-plugin depends on libgtkembedmoz.so.  This file is in /usr/local/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so when building for firefox2.  The Makefile has no provisions to support firefox3 but even more so, when updating the USE_GECKO line to use firefox3, libgtkembededmoz.so doesn't exist in the latest version of firefox.  So, I'm not sure if firefox2 will have to be built to obtain this shared object or not.

>How-To-Repeat:
Run a make install when you have firefox3 installed instead of firefox2.
