[Bug 174346] FlashPlayer installation problem, because of the MD5 Check ...

[Fabien Lusseau]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

FlashPlayer have been updated recently ... and the md5 checking block
the installation of the new version ...

I think a backport will be uploaded ... but for the newbie, that install
Ubuntu Gutsy now ... It is a really big problem ...

Before in Ubuntu Feisty, if the installation of the repositories version
of flashplayer failed, Firefox can automatically download it from the
adobe website, and the newbie don't have any problem ...

But now with Ubufox extension ... it can't install it anymore ...

Because of this very big problem, i think, for Hardy, that this MD5
check, can be go out ...

Because this program is nonfree ... I think the MD5 don't help anymore
... the user know this problem ... And the MD5 cause o lot of problem
...

----
I have tested the last version of flashplayer with nspluginwrapper it work well !
