Bug Description

Lightspark 0.5.5 has a problem on YouTube:

"The Adobe Flash plugin has crashed.
Send crash report"

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) Beta 2. YouTube URL: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkxX3WHHRHA&feature=g-all-u&context=G2120a3fFAAAAAAAAAAA

Can Lightspark 0.5.5 fix YouTube support?

Please create a workaround patch for older releases. For now I recommend that you add the PPA & upgrade Lightspark or install GNU Gnash.

[SOLVED] Watch YouTube videos

Install from Terminal (pressing Ctrl+Alt+t):
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sparkers/daily && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lightspark browser-plugin-lightspark

or

sudo apt-get install browser-plugin-gnash
