Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nspluginwrapper

This bug concerns amd64 Intrepid.

Recently Flash stopped working in Firefox. Instead I would just get grey
rectangles. This was around the time that I upgraded to Intrepid,
although I don't know for certain whether it was this that did it, or a
normal upgrade to Firefox, or something else. I did, a few months ago do
some tinkering to get Flash working during the period when it was broken
on 64bit Hardy, but it ran trouble-free from the time it was fixed right
through the (northern hemisphere) autumn.

The very simple fix was to reinstall nspluginwrapper using Synaptic, but
this wouldn't be at all obvious to a non-techie and therefore needs to
be either automated or more accessibly documented.
