[Bug 1042199] [NEW] doesn't actually download flash plugin

[Brian J. Murrell]

Public bug reported:

I have installed:

flashplugin-installer:
  Installed: 11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1
  Candidate: 11.2.202.238ubuntu0.12.04.1

But when I run:

$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin-installer

And hit return at the "Location to the local file:" prompt, leaving the
input empty so that the installer will download the flash plugin as it
says it will in the explanation of the input field: "...  If you have
not already downloaded it, leave this blank and the package will be
downloaded automatically."

But no download actually happens and "dpkg-reconfigure flashplugin-
installer" exits without doing anything.
