[Bug 138099] Re: Flashplugin-nonfree failed to install on AMD64 due to missing libXcomposite.so

[Ralf Nieuwenhuijsen]

** Summary changed:

- linux 32 conflicts with ubuntu-minimal on amd64
+ Flashplugin-nonfree failed to install on AMD64 due to missing libXcomposite.so

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: linux32
+ After the latest update, flash stopped working.
+ When doing [sudo aptitude reinstall flashplugin-nonfree] this error is given:
  
- linux32 and ubuntu-minimal conflict as of today when I did a dist-
- upgrade. nspluginwrapper needs the linux32 package so now I got no flash
- :(
+ /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libXcomposite.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
+ nspluginwrapper: no appropriate viewer found for /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
