[Bug 591001] Re: CVE-2010-1297: Security Advisory for Flash Player, Adobe Reader and Acrobat

[Hans Ridder]

I was getting Firefox crashes with the Hardy update version, 9.0.277.0,
so I'd say there is still a problem with the CVE fix on Hardy that needs
to be addressed. I don't know how to gather data to diagnose the crash
or if anyone is willing to work on it.

To try 10.1, I didn't have the partner repository mentioned previously,
despite the claim the Hardy Release Notes that it should have been added
during an upgrade:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseNotes#Commercial/partner%20repository

I have upgraded this system "automatically", all the way from Breezy.

I added the partner repository using Synaptic: Settings -> Repositories
-> Third-Party Software -> Add. Enter the APT line from the above web
page, click on Add Source, then click Close.  If a warning dialog pops
up, click Close. Click the Reload button. Search for "adobe" and install
the "adobe-flashplugin" package.

This currently gets you adobe-flashplayer version 10.1.53.64-1, which is
the same as you would find at:

http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

It hasn't crashed, so far, and it supports those sites that require
Flash 10+.
