[Bug 72146] Re: request: flash-plugin-nonfree

[Lionel Le Folgoc]

Builds fine in an up-to-date edgy pbuilder, but does not install:

$ sudo dpkg -i flashplugin-nonfree_9.0.21.55.2ubuntu1~edgy0.1_i386.deb 
(Reading database ... 141599 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace flashplugin-nonfree 7.0.68~ubuntu3 (using flashplugin-nonfree_9.0.21.55.2ubuntu1~edgy0.1_i386.deb) ...
Downloading... done.
Unpacking replacement flashplugin-nonfree ...
Setting up flashplugin-nonfree (9.0.21.55.2ubuntu1~edgy0.1) ...
already exists: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libflashplayer.so
dpkg: error processing flashplugin-nonfree (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
 flashplugin-nonfree

It is strange, as 7.0.68~ubuntu3 prerm script executes "update-
flashplugin -u" command, which (theorically) removes this symlink.
