Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: flashplugin-nonfree
When installing flashplugin-installer apt-get reports the error message reported below.
When this occurs I'm unable to remove or install the plugin.
I manually removed the package by using: gksu gedit /var/lib/dpkg/status and removing the package details and then attempted a re-install with the same problem.
If I look in firefox flash is loaded however the myth packages mentioned
below appear to require this particular version.
Download done.
Flash Plugin installed.
