[Bug 851736] Re: flash is missing after upgrade to 11.10

[3vi1]

I think flashplugin-downloader has problems resolving hosts for some
reason.

On the system I have in front of me (upgraded step by step from lucid-
mav-nat-oneiric), all DNS resolution works, but flashplugin-downloader
consistently does this:

I'm not sure what it's trying to resolve, but it's most certainly not
archive.canonical.com.  I can resolve it fine from nslookup, and even
open the .gz file by putting the URL in this web browser.

I even put archive.canonical.com in the /etc/hosts file and I get this
failure.  This machine is not behind a proxy.
