why is it doing this? i followed the intructions exactly?
Should be,
tar xzf nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz
cd nspluginwrapper-flash
makepkg -s
pacman -U nspluginwrapper-flash-10.1.53-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
Double check the file names before running the commands.
edit: Good catch Zeist.
when i typed in your correct i got this
[tevin@baxxan ~]$ tar xzf nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz
tar (child): nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
