[Bug 1254575] [NEW] web sites no longer recognize flash player is installed

[Bob Hogg]

Public bug reported:

After the recent update, various websites (ex.
http://www.ctv.ca/TheBigBangTheory/video.aspx?vid=133084) no longer
recognize that the Flash player (the standard Adobe one) is installed.
They thus refuse to play Flash video.

That page displayed fine until immediately after the update.

Here is the lsb_release -rd output:
Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS
Release:	12.04

Here is the output of apt-cache:
