[Bug 308405] [NEW] [Gutsy] flashplugin-nonfree fails to install

[B. C. Schmerker]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree

Due to file changes by Adobe Systems, Inc., the Tape Archive
install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz is no longer available at
FPDownoad.Macromedia.com as Debian Synaptic for Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy
expects for the Package flashplugin-nonfree-9.0.124.0-ubuntu1-gutsy1.
Adobe has replaced the TAr cited with the Tape Archive
install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz.  I am unable to use the Debian
Package install_flash_player_10_linux.deb on Ubuntu 7.10 (or its GoodOS
derivative, gOS 1.2 Painful), as, being designed for Ubuntu 8.04-LTS
Hardy and up, it apparently requires a newer LibCairo2 than is available
for 7.10 from US.Archive.Ubuntu.com (so the GDebi Package Installer).
In the meantime, is a workaround available until the Gutsy database is
amended to account for these supplier changes which broke the Package
flashplugin-nonfree-9.0.124.0-ubuntu1-gutsy1 as standardized?
