Title:
  flashplugin-installer packaging updated to 11.2.202.233 but still
  pulls down 11.2.202.228 version

Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “flashplugin-nonfree” source package in Precise:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The flashplugin-installer package was updated to 11.2.202.233ubuntu1;
  however it still pulls down the adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228 orig
  tarball from archive.canonical.com. This will start breaking
  eventually when the older version gets reaped.

    Preparing to replace flashplugin-installer 11.2.202.228ubuntu3 (using .../flashplugin-installer_11.2.202.233ubuntu1_amd64.deb) ...
    Unpacking replacement flashplugin-installer ...
    Processing triggers for update-notifier-common ...
    flashplugin-installer: downloading http://archive.canonical.com/pool/partner/a/adobe-flashplugin/adobe-flashplugin_11.2.202.228.orig.tar.gz
    Installing from local file /tmp/tmpamGBHX.gz
    Flash Plugin installed.

  The reason this is happening is that in the 11.2.202.233ubuntu1
  update, the debian/flashplugin-installer.{config,postinst} were
  updated with the new version and sha256sums, but the debian/post-
  download-hook was not, which causes the old version to get downloaded.

  (Ultimately, the packaging should get fixed so that only one location
  needs to be updated with the new flash version and sha256sum rather
  than three, to prevent errors like this from happening again.)
