Please don't start a flame war in the bug tracker. Splitting hairs over how we differ on defining Blocker is a waste of time. To me a Blocker keeps Gnash for working at all, whereas Important is for things that Gnash still runs mostly, but has crashes sometimes. We should fix all important and blocker bugs for a release. Making everything a blocker basically ignores the Important value completely.

We haven't fixed all Important bugs for 0.8.9
But we did fix all the Blockers.
And by we I mean everyone but you...

Please don't make it hard to keep gnash on an acceptable quality level.

It is up to the maintainer to decide the bug severity as we've discussed before. Making most of your filed bugs blockers makes that value meaningless. All important and blocker bugs should be fixed by the next release as a matter of process.

I believe konqueror is using the NPAPI emulation available under WebKit, which may not support GetURL the same. It'd be worth checking.

Is blocking next release of course, not the past one.

Are you sure it takes a scriptable-aware npapi version
to have NPN_GetURL ?

Older browsers don't support getURL anyway, and a blocker on something already released is useless. As this is in master too, we should check the value of _scriptObject to avoid crashes.

Please also try http://strk.keybit.net/tmp/getURL.swf as I belive there's another unchecked access of _scriptObject to be taken care of.

Looks like _scriptObject is null, condition which isn't checked in ::startProc, nor in processPlayerRequest.

Given _scriptObject is only set when NPNFuncs.version >= 14 I wonder if this means older browser won't have any support for GETURL either.

If I try to load a page with flash inside it crashes here on konqueror (3.5.9).

I installed dbg packages and attach the backtrace.
