Adobe Flash Player Auto Updater

#1 Post by Geoffrey »

I've written a script that can be placed in /root/Startup and will check if there is a newer version of flash player on each boot or restart of X, if there is it will automatically download the lastest linux version then extract the libflashplayer.so and move it to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins, replacing the the old version.

Edit: New version 1.1, this has a download progess bar, if for any reason the the script halts, it can be restarted manually or restartX, the download will resume, it also makes a backup of the old libflashplayer.so.

Edit: New version 1.2, I just changed the way the version number is parsed from the web page, it's a one liner now.
I noted that there is a problem, the command "/usr/bin/strings" and "/usr/lib/libbfd-2XXX" from the devx are needed to read the content of libflashplayer.so to get the version number

I tried it using "busybox strings" applet, this works for me in carolina, please test this, if your flash player is up to date then nothing will download.


Edit: New version 1.3, this now has a menu entry in the internet menu, has option to run at startup, if the download it stopped it can be resumed, test this please, it works fine for me but it may have problems I haven't noticed, the script is bit of a mishmash but works, ideas are welcome.


It now uses " awk" instead of "busybox strings" .


Edit: New version 1.4, rewrite of script, now uses gtkdialog for download progress, yad no longer a dependency, rg66 had problems from his location, if unable to find get.adobe.com/flashplayer then checks adobe.com/software/flash/about for version info.

Edit: New version 1.5, edited script as adobe wasn't detecting the OS, thanks sfs.

Edit: New version 1.6, flashplayer now follows Firefox - NPAPI.

Edit: New version 1.7, fixed finding installed version number, now only checks for updates at adobe.com/software/flash/about

Edit: New version 1.8, fixed finding latest available version number, at adobe.com/software/flash/about

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash
# By Geoffrey, do with as you please.......

Cool!

Can this simply be copied off the page, or should the tar.gz be used?

Mike, download the new pet, this one works much better.

I did note that firefox didn't register that it had a new flash plugin,
I had to rename the libflashplayer.soxxx so as fiirefox couldn't find it,
then ran firefox checked the plugins to make sure the plugin wasn't listed,
then renamed it libflashplayer.so, then firefox found the new flash version.

I've seen that others have mentioned that installing a new flash player
firefox didn't show any change, there must be a simple fix for that :?

Update to 1.2
Fixed a problem. the "strings" command from the devx was needed, I changed the command to "busybox strings" this appears to work.

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but...

1. I tried the original version, and that crashed Firefox, so...
I deleted my slackosave.4fs and restored a backup copy. then....

2. Installed the latest updateflash-1.2.pet, and that too crashed both Firefox-39.0 and Palemoon-24.7.1.
So, I've yet again restored my backup slackosave.4fs.

I've been testing also, I tried it with palemoon and it asks to be updated even though it's the latest version 11.2.202.491, checking online say's
Flash Player Plugin on Linux 11.2.202.424 and lower (click-to-play) has been blocked for your protection.
I get the same result if I use the 11.2.202.491 pet from the repo, so it's not the script as all it does is download the same files as the pet is made from.

I just installed seamonkey and it works ok with it, so it's an issue with palemoon and as for firefox it don't seem to refresh the plugin, if you do as I did and rename or temporarily move the libflashplayer.so file then run firefox, check that the plugin is not loaded, close firefox and replace the libflashplayer.so, I think you'll find that it will then work.

I tried the script in puppy vivid 6.5, works fine with the " busybox strings " command.

I've updated palemoon, works ok now, I can see what the problem was, palemoon wasn't parsing the version correctly, it was showing " 11,2,202,491 " instead of " 11.2.202.491 "

@Geoffrey

1. "it's an issue with palemoon"
I updated Palemoon to version 25.5.0, and the updated version doesn't have all of the nice links. :(
How to get those back?
But I won't re-install your pet until all of the problems have been fixed.

2. "...as for firefox it don't seem to refresh the plugin"
Errr...which plugin?
I don't understand.

3. "...if you do as I did and rename or temporarily move the libflashplayer.so file then run firefox check the plugin is not loaded..."
Um, confused again...
Did you mean "then run firefox, AND check the plugin is not loaded"
Which plugin? FlashPlayer?

4. "...close firefox and replace the libflashplayer.so"
With what exactly?
A more up-to-date copy? Which?

Am I coming across as dense? :(

1) Nice links from which version? Are you referring to the ones that come standard or your old ones?

2) There's only ONE plug-in we're discussing.

3) Yep, FlashPlayer. He meant, if you rename or move it elsewhere, Adobe's page would say it's NOT installed. Follow"

4) Yeah, replace it with a different one.. And older if need be.

Hi, Geoffrey.

Hmm. That last stanza in the script looks awfully familiar..! Mavrothal's network 'readiness' script looks to be proving itself quite useful... :lol:

Might give this .pet a try myself, even though I've got into a routine of checking Flash Player version with this page:-

http://www.adobe.com/uk/software/flash/about/

...and then downloading and manually installing the new libflashplayer.so as & when necessary.

I do the same thing with libpepflashplayer.so for Chrome/Chromium .....although that's a bit more long-winded; it entails downloading the newest version of 'google-chrome' from the 'Get Chrome' downloads page, then extracting the libpepflashplayer.so from the mess, and discarding the rest of it. Seems a bit of a waste of bandwidth, but that's how Ubuntu gets Pepperflash for Chromium; exactly the same way. I'm guessing that's probably how peebee gets it for his Chromium .pets & .sfs's.....and then includes it with the browser versions when he re-packages them.

Necessary for both in my case, since I don't run the newest versions of either of 'em..!

Pepperflash has never been available as a separate download, the way the Linux version of Flash has, 'cos Google always 'bundles' it in with Chrome as a complete package, so.....anybody wanting it for Chromium has to go the same route, since it's the only way to obtain it! Appears to be the way their 'exclusive' arrangement with Adobe for the up-to-date version of Linux Pepperflash works...

Hey ho. :lol:


Mike.

I have no idea, that's to do with Palemoon not the flash plugin

4. "...close firefox and replace the libflashplayer.so"

From what I've noted is that Firefox does not recognize that the flash plugin(libflashplayer.so) has changed,

after the update script has done it's magic or for that matter the latest flash pet package,

it don't seem to look for the version number but only that the file exist, so if you rename the /usr/lib/mozilla/libflashplayer.so to libflashplayer.sox

and then run firefox, select the menu > Tool > Add-ons and look under Plugins, Shockwave flash shouldn't be listed,

now close Firefox, name it libflashplayer.so then rerun Firefox, the flash plugin should be seen as the new/latest version.

Well that's how I have overcome the problem, I have Firefox version 39.0.3, it may not need this done with other versions.

Yes, it does come in handy for anything that relies on a network connection.

First, I thank you for offering this!!!!!!!

Flash Player is a constant issue :evil: :twisted:

However, I will never use anything that, at bootup, automatically connects to the internet, downloads stuff, and installs it.

I choose when a program does things :!:

If you offer an option, so the program searches for a new version of Flash Player, notifies about the update, but gives you the option to download and install.

I could use that :!: :!: :!: :D
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Working on it, just about finished with a rewrite of the script, I'll be giving it a menu entry, when run it will give the option to check for new flash version at startup and some other features.

OK...
Installed yad, and "Update Flash" now runs from the menu entry in Slacko-5.7.0-pae. :D

Looks polished, and seems to be working well.
I like the way it now tells the version it has just installed.

Nice job! 8)
