[Bug 962765] [NEW] Firefox Beta (firefox-next): firefox: Breaks: adobe-flashplugin (<= 11.1.102.63-0oneiric1) but 11.1.102.63-0oneiric1 is to be installed.

[Greg Whiteley]

Public bug reported:

Note:
This is related to #955601. Note this may not be a strict dupe as that was logged against aurora  - marked as resolved with aurora transition to firefox13.  This bug is now inherited by firefox-next as firefox12 has moved into beta (firefox-next)

Firefox version is 12.0~b2+build1-0ubuntu0.11.10.1~mfn1

Details:
adobe-flashplugin was uninstalled by a recent update (I didn't see this - my wife just couldn't use it and I found it missing).

Attempting to reinstall shows a conflict between firefox and the
available flashplugin which would have caused it to be uninstalled when
my wife accepted updates:


$ sudo aptitude install adobe-flashplugin
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  adobe-flash-properties-gtk{a} adobe-flashplugin
