Public bug reported:

I am running kubuntu 11.04. Adobe Flash Player was previously working in
Firefox. A recent update has apparently wiped out flash player. I cannot
figure out how to re-install it. If I visit a page that needs flash
player, I am directed to download it from Adobe. On Adobe site I select
the version "APT for Ubuntu 10.04+"  but when I click download I get
this error message: Firefox doesn't know how to open this address,
because the protocol (apt) isn't associated with any program.

Searching for answers I found a suggestion to try this command:  dpkg
-l|grep flash; dpkg -l|grep gnash; dpkg -l|grep swf

Here is the result of running that command:

paul at paul-2011-07:~$ dpkg -l|grep flash; dpkg -l|grep gnash; dpkg -l|grep swf
ii  flashplugin-installer                10.3.183.4ubuntu0.11.04.1                  Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
paul at paul-2011-07:~$ 

I do not know how to re-install Adobe Flash Player.
