[Bug 173890] Re: flashplugin-nonfree fails to install... new version?

[Saïvann Carignan]

Jim and eveybody : updates are designed to fix problems, not to cause
new problems. The actual flashplugin-nonfree situation is clearly bad,
so we need to find the way to fix this which will solve every problems.
Argue is good to define solutions but we should not take solutions that
will cause new problems. Trying to estimate the percentage of
Firefox/Konqueror user can only give blurry values as we don't have
tangible way to calculate. I think that more people will try to help
working on a complete solution that will fix problems for everyone in
any situation, the more this will get fixed fast and well. Anyway, I and
we can't take that decision alone, but we can help this process by
making needed information visible, testing new packages in Hardy and
keep in touch with ubuntu developpers. When a bug report get so much
comments, it's just unusable so I don't think we're helping now. Thanks
anyway to everybody who cares about this problem and work to get it
fixed.

Matt : Security problems with Flash on a Linux OS, I believe that it's
far away from critical, but yes I should be fixed.
