Sarah,

I totally understand the reasoning and it is what I expected considering
it is from a third-party.

However, I would still say it is warranted to take a look at the bug
eventually even if not now. Why? Because, if I'm not mistaken,
nspluginwrapper will be included in the Ubuntu repos for Gutsy even if
not installed by default. The bug as it is now may be due to a mistake
made when compiled and packaged, but then again: it may not. It could,
for instance, be a conflict between nspluginwrapper and something that
is officially supported. If that is the case more people could very well
come across this bug when Gutsy is officially released - even if it is
not included in the main category. Personally, I would advocate having
the problem corrected and having nspluginwrapper installed by default in
64-bit.

Anyhow, if it is a conflict between nspluginwrapper and something available from the standard repos, it is something that the Ubuntu developers need to look into if the wrapper will indeed be available in standard Gusty repos.
If it is a bug in the source, the upstream developer need to know about it. Unfortunately, I have no idea of what would be useful for him/her/the team to know apart from what I said here. I have a suspicion that my bugreport here would not be sufficient.

As a sidenote, I tried to circumvent the problem by trying gnash
instead. Unfortunately, gnash is not ready to replace the official
flash-player yet but I hope it will some day.
