  Actually you don't have to do that for the plugin, but you do need to
have /usr/local/lib/gnash in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

  The default is to install the plugin in ~/.mozilla/plugins, as that
way you don't have to be root. If you want to change it, you can use
--with-npapi-install=system (to go in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins) if you
do want to do a system wide install.
