Thank you for helping to make Ubuntu better. I have uploaded this to
Ubuntu now. I apologize for the delay.

Bryan, could you follow up by removing mentions of Flash from ubiquity
and ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu ?

I am unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors. Feel free to resubscribe if you have
something else that needs sponoring.

Title:
  Refresh Restricted Addons

Status in ubuntu-restricted-addons package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu-desktop discussion link - https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2017-August/005075.html
  More backstory, addons vs extras used to be universe vs multiverse but that hasn't been true for many releases.  The plan is to drop the -extras package.

  Ubuntu- Plan for this package is to change from:
  adobe-flashplugin | flashplugin-installer  (drop)
  chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
  gstreamer1.0-fluendo-mp3 (remove as we are pulling mp3 decode support in -ugly anyway)
  gstreamer1.0-libav
  gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad (drop)
  gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly

  To:
  chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra
  gstreamer1.0-libav
  gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly
  gstreamer1.0-vaapi (added for video acceleration by default on Intel)

  
  For Lubuntu we are just dropping adobe-flashplugin (which leaves it with just libdvdread4).
